“The Shadow!”

In "The Shadow!", a man’s desperate gamble with voodoo takes a chilling turn when his wife’s sudden inheritance forces him to beg the practitioner to reverse the spell—only to find himself on the receiving end of a supernatural reckoning. Bill La Cava’s moody artwork brings the eerie tension to life, while Carl Burgos and Don Rico’s cover captures the story’s dark, foreboding tone.
