...musical instruments, the American organizers have chosen the most come-at-able works in the repertory, cutting even those when they seemed to go on too long. One that did not need to be cut by more than five minutes is the comic The Monkey King Fights the 18 Lo Hans (demons), which is taken from a legendary novel. The Monkey King, according to the story, has been making a nuisance of himself in heaven; for his misdeeds he is consigned to a fiery furnace.

Though having look-alike covers is an editor's nightmare that all too frequently comes true, the science magazines' trifecta was an interplanetary long shot.
