In "The Death Merchants of the Air!", the enigmatic Heap observes a caravan of Gypsies arriving at Di Fondi Castle, their mysterious box radiating an eerie presence as local children gather around it. With the Harvester among them—a man said to abduct both young and old—the young Prince, defying his late father’s wishes, moves to expel the Gypsies from his estate. Art by Ernest Schroeder, with cover by Dan Zolnerowich, this 1951 Hillman classic blends suspense and folklore in a tale where the air itself seems to hum with danger.
