Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with eerie precision by Barry Smith, inked by Dan Adkins, and lettered by Sam Rosen, this 1974 Marvel classic blends Hollywood glamour with a creeping supernatural dread. The cover by Barry Smith captures the chilling allure of a star’s descent into something far beyond the spotlight.
