“Jeweled Sceptre”

In "Jeweled Sceptre," a quiet town is thrown into mystery when a man’s family vanishes without a trace—only to be explained by a stranger claiming they’re from another dimension, waiting for a lightning strike strong enough to return them home. With Marvin Stein handling both pencils and inks, the tale unfolds with a surreal, grounded dread, while Bill Everett’s striking cover captures the moment the storm arrives.

A man's family disappears one evening and a stranger explains to the town sheriff that they are from another dimension waiting for a lightning bolt of sufficient strength to send them all back to their home dimension. The sheriff thinks the story is nonsense but suddenly a powerful lightning bolt flashes and both the stranger and the man have disappeared as well.
