"Stories of the Sea" delivers a chilling wartime tale from 1942, where Larrigan uncovers a macabre secret after witnessing a coffin removed from a grave by eerily still men. Written and illustrated by William Glyn Protheroe—handling every stage of the artwork—this eerie mystery unfolds at a secluded mansion, where a trapped prisoner reveals the sinister work of the reclusive Doctor Drere. The cover, by Jock McCail, captures the story’s haunting tone with a striking, shadowed scene.
