Creepy Worlds #176
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Minus-Zero Lens!", a 1978 Alan Class gem, the charlatan Cosmo Filch offers dubious counsel to Marius Dodd, who claims to be weighed down by the wrath of the sea god Ekali after stealing a sacred diamond. As Filch convinces Dodd the burden is purely psychological and takes the gem in hand, the tables turn in a chilling twist. Written by Greg Olivetti and illustrated with eerie precision by Ogden Whitney—both inks and pencils on the cover—this issue delivers a classic tale of guilt, deception, and the price of greed.
In "The Old Man of the Sea!" from Creepy Worlds #176 (1978), a desperate Marius Dodd seeks counsel from the charlatan Cosmo Filch, weighed down by a mysterious affliction he believes stems from stealing a sacred diamond from the sea god Ekali. As Filch convinces Dodd that his suffering is merely guilt, the man surrenders the gem—only to find himself suddenly and horrifyingly burdened by the same unseen weight.
