In "L'homme-volcan," a man seeking a last-minute masquerade costume stumbles upon a lion skin in a closed antique shop, donning it as a makeshift Hercules outfit—unaware the pelt is no ordinary relic. Bill Ely’s art brings the mythic weight to life, capturing the moment when the skin’s ancient power begins to stir. The cover by Bob Brown perfectly frames the transformation, hinting at the storm brewing beneath the surface.
