Mister Lucifer Comics #[nn]

In "Up Pops the Devil!", two desperate crooks flee after a violent robbery, seeking refuge in a cemetery—only to unwittingly unleash Mr. Lucifer, a malevolent force bound by their crimes. As he rises from the earth, Lucifer frees his dark minions, setting them loose to spread chaos, but fate takes a grim turn when the very evil they summoned traps them all in a sealed cement tomb.

In "The More-or-Less Living Corpse," a medical journal writer pays a visit to a mental hospital, drawn to a patient who claims to be a "living corpse" transformed by the sinister Dr. Paul Barer. The man recounts a bizarre tale of stage performances, celebrity abductions, and a wax museum where hypnotized victims are displayed—until the journalist’s true identity begins to unravel.
