The eighth issue of Strange Adventures achieved some sort of classic status. The cover showed a gorilla in a zoo holding up a slate that read 'Please believe me! I am the victim of a terrible scientific experiment!' This 'Incredible Story of an Ape with a Human Brain' had strong sales, and [editor Julius] Schwartz recalls that 'Irwin Donenfeld called me in and said we should try it again. Finally all the editors wanted to use gorilla covers.'
