Journey into Fear #20

In "Masters of the Dead," a young woman stumbles upon a secret operation when she witnesses Rocks Hudson smuggling jewels inside corpses that he reanimates as zombies upon entering the U.S.A. As the undead are ordered to march into a furnace after the jewels are extracted, a rival gang’s attack unleashes a deadly confrontation—leaving her caught in the middle of a battle between the living and the dead.

In "The Avenging Ghost," a man wronged by the law returns from the grave—half-mad, horribly scarred by quicklime, and driven by a vengeance that defies death. Haunted by his fate and wielding a blade forged in betrayal, he stalks the night, hunting those who condemned him.

In "Partners in Horror," a man finds himself bound to the personification of Death after a desperate bargain to extend his life—only to discover that his new bride is as inescapable as the grave itself. As he grapples with growing dread and futile attempts to flee, he learns that death doesn’t grant reprieve, only eternity.

In "Body and Ghoul," a man discovers the terrifying power to reshape his own form through sheer will, using his newfound ability to slip into monstrous disguises—ranging from a demon to a vampire—while evading capture. As he slips through the shadows of the city, his transformations blur the line between man and monster, leaving the police scrambling to catch a faceless threat.
