“Curse Castle”

"Curse Castle" delivers a chilling tale from Black Cat Comics #40 (1952), a 10-cent gem where a desperate man's fury against the sun ignites a supernatural reckoning. When a jungle wanderer curses the blazing sky, a witchdoctor's dark retaliation sends him to endure eternal torment at the hands of Soltan the Sun King. Rendered in bold, expressive lines by Rudy Palais—both penciling and inking the interior and crafting the cover—this eerie story blends primal dread with early comic book mysticism.
