Silver Kane's "Un Abrigo de Piel de Hiena" (A Hyena-Skin Coat), issue 316 of the Selección Terror collection, is a supernatural horror serial. The narrative opens at a mansion where widow Nancy grieves her deceased husband Peter during a violent storm. When a companion discovers Peter's reflection missing from the mirror above his coffin, the body itself vanishes. The story shifts to a small hotel in Kent where a desperate young woman named Silvia arrives, demanding a secure room and warning the proprietor Jim that a man named Peter will arrive seeking her—a man she fears despite his death. Peter soon appears, presenting Jim with a death certificate, his ghostly pallor suggesting something beyond the merely mortal. The narrative establishes an atmosphere of Gothic dread, with the storm as backdrop to supernatural pursuits and hauntings.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
