“Jungle Drums, Pt. 1”

"Jungle Drums, Pt. 1" kicks off with a chilling twist on the familiar reflection—Stan Lee’s eerie tale, illustrated with eerie precision by Steve Ditko, follows a man whose face in the mirror begins to fracture, each time revealing a stranger’s visage. As paranoia sets in and he avoids every reflective surface, the horror escalates when the face he’s seen steps out of an elevator—only for the elevator to plummet, leaving him shaken and alone. The cover by Fred Fredericks captures the moment’s dread, a 25p mystery from 1984 that’s as unsettling as it is unforgettable.

A man wakes up in the morning and sees a stranger's face in the mirror and then it shatters. He tries looking into another mirror and the same thing happens. He looks into a full length mirror and it happens a third time. He makes his way to work, avoiding mirrors, until he stands before the elevator. When the door opens, the man whose face he has seen is standing inside producing a terror-stricken reaction. Our hero runs away, and the puzzled man leaves the elevator which cable snaps, sending it plunging down the shaft to destruction.
