“Tarry Till I Come Again”

Part of DC's Legends crossover event, this 1987 installment of Secret Origins turns the spotlight on one of the DC Universe's most enigmatic figures — the Phantom Stranger. Jim Aparo's cover is a striking visual puzzle: three distinct versions of the caped, wide-brimmed Stranger are arranged across a grand, otherworldly corridor, with a gleaming Earth floating at its center — suggesting that this character's true nature may be more layered than any single image can contain. Inside, the creative team of Dan Mishkin and Ernie Colón tackle "Tarry Till I Come Again," one of four mysterious origin accounts promised on the cover, making this a compelling read for anyone drawn to DC's stranger, more mystical corners.
