“They Walk Among Us!”

In "They Walk Among Us!", a mind-reading swami’s carefully constructed facade crumbles when he claims to detect an alien infiltrator among the wealthy. Convinced the threat is real, he confesses to years of fraud—only for the police to uncover the truth: the so-called alien is just an actor preparing for a role. Bob Bean’s art brings the tension to life, while Bill Everett’s cover captures the eerie suspense of the moment.
