In "The Dead Awaken," two scientists send electrical pulses into the earth’s crust and are stunned when a reply comes back—echoing, deliberate, and unmistakably intelligent. Drawn by their signal, a massive humanoid entity emerges from the depths, its arrival heralding a chilling mystery. Warren Kremer’s art brings the eerie, otherworldly tone to life, while Al Avison’s cover captures the moment of dread as the surface world confronts what lies beneath.

When Professor Thorenson and his assistant John Poners detect a mysterious signal from deep within the Earth, they’re electrified by the possibility of subterranean life—until the creature they summon emerges, a towering, otherworldly presence with no regard for human life. As Vivienne Poners watches in horror and Noah Brandt scrambles to understand what’s gone wrong, the scientists realize too late that some forces should never be called to the surface.
