House of Mystery #21
In "The Man Who Could See Death!", prisoner Dubois on the isolated Maricombe Island colony defies every attempt by guard Letrec to break him—until the torment begins to unravel Letrec’s own sanity. With Nick Cardy handling both pencils and inks, this chilling 1953 tale from House of Mystery delivers a stark, psychological descent into madness. Leonard Starr’s cover captures the story’s eerie tension with a haunting, shadowed portrait of a man on the edge.
