“The Island of Dr. Moreau”

In *The Island of Dr. Moreau* #1 (1977), a 60-cent comic from Marvel, castaway Andrew Braddock stumbles upon what seems like salvation—land after days adrift. But his relief quickly gives way to dread as he discovers himself trapped on an isolated island ruled by the unhinged Dr. Moreau, where creatures of twisted biology stalk the jungle. Written by Doug Moench and illustrated by Larry Hama, with inks by Jess Jodloman and colors by Janice Cohen, the story unfolds with eerie precision, while Gil Kane’s striking cover captures the dread of the unknown.
