Gun aircraft in the desert that has been missing for over twenty years, only to encounter its ghostly pilot who reveals he has been waiting for them. The issue also contains a second story involving judges and professors evaluating entries at what appears to be a competition, where one contestant named Tyro creates an unusual submission that impresses and troubles the judges, leading them to follow him into mysterious circumstances involving a snow-covered landscape and hidden secrets.
Earl Wills, an ex-World War Two flier turned oil prospector, stumbles upon an abandoned B-25 bomber while lost in the Sahara Desert and takes shelter inside—only to discover the plane's engines roaring to life after twenty-three years of silence. As the aircraft lifts off with him trapped aboard, Earl finds himself reliving a wartime mission with a ghostly crew, caught in a nightmare he can't escape. The desert has given up its secrets, and they're not letting him go.
A ghost haunts Studio 7, disrupting TV broadcasts with its mysterious appearances, until Dr. M.T. Graves the supernaturalist is called in to investigate. When a murder occurs on live television, the specter does what the skeptical Mr. Forbes cannot—it reveals the killer to all who are watching. In 1967, even the spirit world keeps pace with modern times.
Len Kallgen, a ruthless pop record producer, finds himself tormented by mysterious music—and when a confession about a murder tumbles out of his mouth, detectives Murphy and Tripp are pulled into a case that grows stranger by the minute. As they investigate the disappearance of teen idol Lonny O'Day, Kallgen's desperate claims about what's trapped inside a record begin to sound less like the ravings of a guilty man and more like a terrifying truth. In this eerie tale from 1967, the line between stardom and damnation proves as thin as a vinyl groove.
Tyro Hass, a perpetually ridiculed college student, channels years of mockery and resentment into an elaborate snow sculpture for the campus competition—but when the judges arrive, they discover it's far more than a simple display. What begins as Tyro's bid for vindication transforms into something darker and more sinister, trapping the very professors who've tormented him in a deadly winter landscape from which there may be no escape.
