Written by Michael Fleisher and Russell Carley, with bold artwork by Ernie Chan and inks by Jim Aparo, this 1978 issue delivers a chilling blend of psychological suspense and supernatural intervention. The cover, a striking portrait by Nick Cardy, captures the eerie tension of the story’s central threat.
