Chamber of Chills Magazine #23
In "Heartline," brilliant surgeon Lawrence Romaine grapples with grief after the sudden death of his beloved Susanne, only to attempt a radical experiment—reviving her using a cadaver’s heart. What follows is a haunting exploration of love and identity, as Susanne awakens with a new heartbeat, drawn not to the man who mourns her, but to the body that now houses her new life. A chilling tale from Harvey’s *Chamber of Chills Magazine* #23, featuring evocative art by Manny Stallman and inks by John Giunta, with a striking cover by Warren Kremer and Lee Elias.
