Charlie Chan #3
In "The Lottery Murders," Charlie Chan turns his sharp mind to a cryptic mystery, using a numerical code to reveal a startling connection between history and prophecy—assigning values to letters, he calculates that the name "Hitler" adds up to 666. Written, drawn, and inked by Alfred Andriola, this 1983 Pacific Comics Club issue blends mystery with a touch of the surreal, all rendered in Andriola’s distinctive style. The cover, also by Andriola, captures the story’s eerie intrigue.
