This is my favorite cover in the entire run, and one of the wildest covers of the Golden Age IMHO.  Does anyone know what's going on in this story?  What is the bad guy doing to these women exactly?

I think it's a routine exam and he's giving them the option of saline or silicone.  (shrug)

Doesn't seem that way ... the electrical connections along the top show that all but the last tube are powered up, and the eye (at least in our culture) is trained to go from left to right so we're seeing a progression whereby the leftmost is furthest along in the process.  Whatever that process is, it clearly seems to be not good and these women are under threat. They seem to be disintegrating or something, though it's interesting to note that even the one at the far left is still normal from the neck up.  By not showing that one as a full skeleton or a pile of dust, the art stops short of crossing the line into horror.

Not knowing the book, I have no idea if any of these women (particularly the one at the far right who hasn't yet been harmed) is a named character that the hero and the reader especially care about.  In fact when I've glanced at the Planet covers in general I have a hard time tracing an arc at all so I honestly have almost no idea what's going on in this title at all.  lol  But the covers sure are cool.

From the GCD (unfortunately):

Indexer Notes

The cover image is a generic sf cover that actually appears to feature The Red Comet who hasn't appeared in Planet Comics for years.
