☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Monster in the Morgue!", Sandman and Sandy confront a chilling scientific experiment gone awry when a reclusive inventor unleashes a machine capable of awakening dormant brain cells—tripling a person's mental capacity, but at a terrifying cost. Written and illustrated by Jack Kirby, with inks by Joe Simon and lettering by Howard Ferguson, this 1972 DC classic blends mind-bending science with supernatural dread. The cover, penciled by Kirby and inked by Mike Royer, captures the eerie tension of the moment.
When "Doc" Gideon uses one of Serifan's capsules to re-animate a grotesque creature stitched from stolen parts, chaos erupts in the morgue—and Deadman, drawn by a seance, reaches out across the veil to warn the Forever People. With "Doc" Gideon's monster loose and the dead stirring, the team must race to uncover the truth before the city becomes a graveyard of the unnatural.
In "The Man Who Knew All the Answers!", Sandman and Sandy confront a brilliant but dangerous scientist whose revolutionary machine unlocks untapped brainpower—turning a man into a thinking machine with near-infinite potential. With the Human Calculator, Professor Hiram Gaunt, wielding his newfound intellect, the duo must outthink a mind that sees every move before it’s made, while Hunky and Baldy stand ready in the shadows.
