“Der vergessliche Einbrecher”

In "Der vergessliche Einbrecher," a cosmic criminal and his guardian are killed by radiation, their consciousnesses transferred into their costumes—only to awaken on Earth, where they wage a strange battle of wills. Written by Cary Bates and brought to life with Curt Swan’s precise art and George Roussos’s inks, this 1970 tale explores identity and memory through a uniquely surreal premise. The cover, penciled by Swan and inked by Murphy Anderson, captures the eerie, otherworldly tension of the story.
