In "The Old Lady's Curse," a chemist’s groundbreaking serum that lets users teleport at will is stolen by an escaped convict—only for the thief to discover the power is unreliable, trapping him in a chaotic cycle of sudden, uncontrolled jumps between locations. Written by Carl Wessler and illustrated by Ed Winiarski, this 1983 tale from Alan Class delivers a clever, eerie twist on the idea of instant escape, with Dick Giordano handling the cover art.
