In "O, Bitter Victory!", a desperate thug forces a sorcerer to reveal six words that can banish someone to limbo—only to turn the spell on himself, vanishing into the void with a chilling twist. The story breaks the fourth wall with eerie precision, leaving the reader caught in a moment of unsettling realization before the final, ironic fate unfolds. Art by Syd Shores and a striking cover by Ron Wilson, Mike Esposito, and John Tartaglione bring this surreal, self-aware tale to life in a 1974 UK comic priced at 0.06 GBP.
