☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Satan's Man," a 1972 Eerie Publications horror tale, an ordinary optometrist named Harry Lenz unknowingly becomes the unwitting pawn of a far darker force when Satan commissions him to craft a pair of extraordinary spectacles. With newfound powers to see through walls and read minds, Harry’s life spirals into a web of deception and greed as he reinvents himself as the wealthy Herman Greid—only to be undone by a pair of con artists who turn his fortune against him. The story unfolds with eerie precision, its chilling tone brought to life by Alberto Macagno’s expressive art, while Fernando Fernández’s striking cover captures the tale’s unsettling essence.
In "Satan's Man," a desperate optometrist is given supernatural spectacles by a mysterious figure who may not be who he seems. With the power to see through walls and into minds, the man uses his new abilities to escape a life of obscurity—only to find that his rise to wealth and power is built on a foundation of deception and dread. When a pair of revolutionaries with a cryptic name lure him into a trap, his fortune crumbles, and his fate takes a final, chilling turn.
In "The Weird Old Man," a young woman marries a reclusive, unattractive older man rumored to hide a fortune within his isolated home. Though he knows her motives are rooted in greed, he remains eerily calm—aware that she’ll soon learn just how dangerous his secrets can be.
