In "Heirs of the Super-Servant," a film crew arrives in a quiet town to shoot a movie about a legendary monster from the past—only to find that the legend may be more real than fiction. As filming begins, the star suddenly transforms into the very creature they’re portraying, blurring the line between myth and nightmare. With art by Ruben Moreira and a striking cover by Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff, this 1961 DC classic delivers a chilling twist on the horror genre, all for the price of a 10-cent comic.
