In "I Became a Robot," a jealous scientist's assistant commits murder, only to find his life unraveling when a black cat begins haunting him—driving him to believe the feline is the vengeful reincarnation of his victim. Howard Sherman's stark, expressive art brings a haunting tension to this eerie tale of guilt and paranoia, while Gaspar Saladino's lettering adds to the creeping dread. The cover by Dick Dillin and Sheldon Moldoff captures the story's unsettling mood with a striking, shadowed image of the cat watching from the dark.
