“Shrieking Man!”

"Shrieking Man!" in Eerie #4 (1973) delivers a chilling dose of psychological horror, as a new young doctor begins his tenure at a secluded asylum under the watchful eye of a renowned psychiatrist. His first encounter is with a patient locked in a cell, screaming uncontrollably, his agony seemingly beyond reason or cure. Written by Archie Goodwin and illustrated with eerie precision by Steve Ditko—whose inks lend the pages a haunting depth—this story unfolds with a quiet dread that lingers long after the final panel. The cover, by Manuel Sanjulián, captures the asylum’s oppressive atmosphere with stark, unsettling detail.
