“Frankenstein, Book II: Chapter One”

"Frankenstein, Book II: Chapter One" delivers a chilling tale of ambition and consequence in Psycho #3 (1971), a standout issue from Skywald’s short-lived but potent horror line. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life with stark, atmospheric art by Bill Everett—whose pencils and inks define the story’s grim tone—this issue follows a thief whose ill-fated heist sets off a chain of supernatural events. Cover by Boris Vallejo captures the eerie dread with a haunting, gothic image that perfectly mirrors the story’s descent into eternal torment.

A thief decides to strike it really big and knock over the Magic Museum, even though the theft earlier of some pearls led to a strange curse being placed upon him by a sorceress. She later demands that he steal a special elixir of life or be tormented by wicked spirits for the rest of his life. This he does, but instead of giving her the elixir, he drinks it himself becoming immortal. However his body freezes up as a result. Thinking him dead, he gets buried at a cemetary and forced to spend eternity in living death in his grave.
