Rom #38

In "Suffer the Little Children!", Rom ventures to an English orphanage where something is terribly wrong—children are trapped in a strange trance, and their true identities are hidden beneath the guise of the Dire Wraiths. Meanwhile, in Scotland, Shang-Chi confronts a sinister coven attempting to resurrect a child’s spirit through dark means. Written by Bill Mantlo and illustrated by Sal Buscema, with inks by Akin and Garvey, colors by Ben Sean, and letters by Jim Novak, this 1983 issue features a cover by Gene Day that captures the eerie tension of the story.
