"Family Reunion!" in Creepy #5 (1965) delivers a chilling tale of inheritance and betrayal, written by Archie Goodwin and illustrated by Joe Orlando, whose inks bring a sharp, unsettling edge to the story. When the youngest son, Jack, inherits his father’s farm after Benson Cartwright’s death, he sets out to eliminate his older brothers—each of whom has a claim—so he can sell the land. The cover, a striking piece by Frank Frazetta, captures the eerie atmosphere with its haunting imagery.
