Synopsis
A scientist living during the height of the cold war invents a time
machine to escape the fear of the present day by traveling into a past
epoch. The first place he lands is the French revolution. He flees
guards who take his clothes for those of an aristocrat and want to
behead him. The next place his machine takes him is the Spanish
Inquisition (which no one expects). They put him on trial for sorcery,
so he jumps into his machine and lands in the time of the Black Plague.
He thinks maybe one more time will deposit him in a less fearful age,
but he ends up in gladiatorial Rome. He resolves to return to his own
century having learned the lesson that every age had its dangers and
mankind survives by facing up to them.
Notes
This story seems to be a retelling of “Time Machine”, a text
story first published in Mystic (Marvel, 1951 series) #57 (March 1957)
and reprinted many times subsequently; it shares the same structure and
moral, though the motive for building a time machine is different.
