When a rocket crew returns from space with only one survivor, Victor Carroon, the true cost of their journey begins to surface—something unnatural has taken root in him during the flight. Written by Les Lilley and Dez Skinn and illustrated with eerie precision by Brian Lewis, the story unfolds with a creeping sense of unease, all rendered in stark, atmospheric art. Cover by Brian Lewis.
In the 1977 anthology *The House of Hammer #8*, "The Quatermass Xperiment" follows the aftermath of a doomed space mission: a returning rocket crashes back to Earth, carrying only one survivor—Victor Carroon. Something from the void has taken root in him, and as the scientific team led by Professor Quatermass investigates, the line between human and alien begins to blur.
Van Helsing, Jed Garrett, and the Butler are all aboard a midnight coach, the air thick with dread as the bus rumbles through the dark. Garrett, recently escaped from prison, is stunned to find his victims—those he killed in his violent flight—seated among the other passengers, silent and unblinking.
