Planet of the Apes #98

"Escape from the Psychedrome!" delivers a chilling twist on myth and mystery in this 1976 Marvel UK standout, where a curio shop owner warns patrons of a stone statue said to be a burglar frozen by Medusa—and a door that shouldn’t be opened. Steve Ditko’s distinctive art and inks bring a surreal, eerie tension to the tale, while Artie Simek’s lettering adds to the unsettling atmosphere. The cover by Herb Trimpe and Duffy Vohland captures the story’s haunting mood in vivid detail.
