“The Ghost Came C.O.D.”

In "The Ghost Came C.O.D.," a clever scammer preys on the grief of widows by sending bills to the recently deceased—only to find his scheme unraveled when one of his victims returns… not as a ghost, but as a Martian hiding in a human form. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with moody, expressive art by Reed Crandall, this eerie 1985 tale blends dark humor and cosmic mystery. The cover, a striking piece by Joe Maneely, captures the story’s unsettling tone with a classic, dramatic flair.
