Ghostly Tales #154

Charlton's long-running horror anthology reaches issue #154 with a cover by Su Gumen that sets an unsettling, pulpy mood — a dark-haired woman in exotic attire clutches a horrified man while menacing reptilian creatures close in from both sides, all beneath the looming shadow of a demonic face and a glowing geometric gem. Inside, the creative pairing of writer Joe Gill and artist Steve Ditko brings the story "Till We Meet Again" to life, with Ray Burzon on lettering duties. For fans of early-'80s Charlton horror, this one delivers that distinctive blend of dread and atmosphere the series consistently did so well.
