Frankenstein #15
In "Le scarabée maudit," a gaseous alien takes control of a mountain dam, using the water to torment nearby villagers. When a local loafer discovers the creature’s method of embodiment, he risks everything to blow up the dam’s pass—stopping the alien’s advance to the sea—only to face imprisonment for his actions. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with dynamic art by Jack Kirby and inks by Dick Ayers, this 1980 issue features a haunting, surreal tale grounded in folklore and desperation. The cover, by Frank Brunner, captures the eerie tension of the moment with striking, moody detail.
