“Surprise!”

In "Surprise!", Sam Jordan discovers an ancient Tibetan chant that lets him freeze living things with his voice—perfect for a new life of crime. But when he tries it on a snake, he learns the hard way that not all creatures hear the same. Written by Steve Morisi and illustrated by Pete Morisi, this eerie 1974 tale blends mysticism and misjudgment in a story that’s as clever as it is unexpected. The cover by Tom Sutton captures the moment with chilling precision.
