Theodore Sturgeon’s Mr. Costello, Hero

First published in Galaxy Science Fiction, December 1953, Theodore Sturgeon’s novelette, Mr. Costello, Hero, was subsequently collected into a handful of SF anthologies and many Sturgeon collections. But none of these reprinted the original Ed Emshwiller art (see below).

More importantly, for purposes of this post at least, it was adapted as the July 30, 1956 episode of X-Minus One which is available as an |MP3| or in this new YouTube video:
