Journey into Unknown Worlds #14
In "The Lighthouse Ghost," a struggling couple’s desperate wish for a miracle takes a chilling turn when their fields are suddenly plowed and planted overnight—only for a strange scarecrow to appear on their land, hinting at a supernatural presence. Bill Everett’s haunting artwork brings this eerie tale to life, with every shadow and silhouette charged with unease. The cover by Everett perfectly captures the story’s unsettling mood, making this 1952 gem a standout in the early Marvel anthology lineup.
