Adventure Comics #433

In "The Swami and... the Spectre," Lt. Corrigan’s investigation into a construction engineer’s murder takes a supernatural turn when he crosses paths with a fraudulent spiritualist preying on the man’s grieving widow. Written by Michael Fleisher and Russell Carley and illustrated with sharp, moody precision by Jim Aparo—whose distinctive pencils and inks define both the interior art and the cover—this 1974 Adventure Comics entry blends noir mystery with the eerie presence of the Spectre, all set against a backdrop of deception and divine retribution.
