With art by Romero, this 1970 IPC issue captures a quiet, unsettling moment in Joanne’s life, where the familiar becomes uncanny.
In "Special Request," a heartfelt moment at a local radio station unfolds when a girl asks the DJ to play a song from a blank record sleeve, unaware it stirs painful memories of a past relationship he’s never truly let go of. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story captures a quiet, bittersweet tension as the DJ hesitates, caught between the present and a memory he’s tried to forget.
In "The Clock Strikes Fear!", Joanne, still reeling from her search for Dave, crosses paths with the estate agent who arranged her flat—only to be drawn into a moment of quiet tension over coffee. As she talks, she catches sight of Dave at the window, vanishing just as she runs after him. When she returns to her flat, a chilling whisper echoes: "But we don't want you to leave, Joanne!"
