Written by Poe and Ronn Sutton, with art, inks, and colors by Ronn Sutton and Benjamin Wright, this issue brings the first detective story in literary history to life with atmospheric precision. The haunting cover by Michael Manning captures the story’s eerie tension, making this a standout entry in the series.
