The Fittest

 IT ALL STARTED when a scientist 

named Paget performed some fantastic 

experiments on dogs, cats, rats and mice 

in an attempt to heighten animal 

intelligence.

HE WAS FAR TOO SUCCESSFUL

When a few of the specimens escaped 

from their cages, people were amused by 

the strange creatures. But as they rapidly 

bred and spread, and new generations 

combined vastly sharpened intelligence 

with a natural hatred of man. amusement 

turned to stark horror.

One man seemed to know too much 

about the new "paggets” for his own 

safety—but not enough to avoid getting 

caught squarely in the middle of mankind's 

final, desperate battle, a savage 

struggle for supremacy in the 

world that would be won only by
