“Gone...But Not Forgotten?”

In "Gone...But Not Forgotten?", a woman returns to her childhood home a decade after leaving, only to discover her old dollhouse—long thought abandoned—now inhabited by dolls that seem to have aged right along with her. Written by Paul S. Newman and illustrated by Gene Colan, this eerie tale blends nostalgia with subtle unease, exploring the lingering presence of the past in quiet, unexpected ways. The haunting cover by Carl Burgos captures the story’s mysterious tone.
