Ghosts #73

DC's long-running supernatural anthology returns with issue #73, featuring a cover by Luis Dominguez that sets an effectively chilling scene: a guilt-ridden man crouches over an injured figure lying in a darkened road beside a crashed motorcycle, while a luminous, skull-helmeted specter looms overhead with grasping hands and the damning words "I've run him down! If I leave him here — no one will ever know!" The tagline promises the phantom will follow you forever in "The Specter of Haunted Highway," and Dominguez's shadowy linework makes it easy to believe. For fans of DC's horror anthologies, this 1979 issue delivers exactly the kind of eerie moral tension the series built its reputation on.
