L'Inattendu #3
In "Les tentacules du tyran," Archie Goodwin and Billy Graham deliver a tense, atmospheric tale rooted in a decades-old family feud that erupts with a deadly twist—when one rival dons a phantom guise, their rivalry culminates in a fatal leap from a high office, dragging another down with them. Set against the fading grandeur of 42nd Street’s theaters, now shifting from live performances to second-run films, the story deepens the mystery of Cage, whose origin is hinted at in a brief, single-panel flashback. Frank Giacoia’s inks bring sharp contrast to Rich Buckler and John Buscema’s dynamic cover art, capturing the story’s grim, cinematic weight.
In "Cri de terreur pour le Spectre," the long-burning feud between two families escalates when one antagonist takes on the guise of a phantom, turning the city’s crumbling 42nd Street theaters—once stages for live performances, now echoing with second-run films—into a stage for vengeance. When one man’s desperate leap from a high office becomes a fatal descent shared by his rival, the line between revenge and ruin blurs in a single, shocking fall.
In "Le revenant des ténèbres," Robert Blake, a student of the occult, ventures into a forsaken church haunted by long-buried darkness—only to awaken something ancient and terrible that has waited too long in the shadows. The story unfolds with a creeping dread, as the line between ritual and ruin blurs in a place where faith has turned to fear.
