“...My Brother's Keeper”

In "My Brother's Keeper," a tense confrontation between a frustrated tenant and his building's custodian spirals into tragedy when anger turns deadly. Al Feldstein crafts a chilling tale of escalating resentment and unintended consequences, as a desperate act to cover up a murder backfires in the most literal way possible. The story unfolds with stark realism, its dread underscored by George Evans’s stark, expressive cover.
