In "Death... Call Not My Name!", a desperate Charlie Cuddy makes a dangerous pact with the enigmatic "Mr. Scratch" to rid himself of his troublesome wife—ignoring the solemn warning from the mysterious Phantom Stranger. Written by Gerry Conway and brought to life with moody precision by Jim Aparo on art and inks, this haunting 1970 tale explores the cost of tempting fate. The cover, a striking collaboration by Neal Adams, captures the story’s eerie tension in stark, unforgettable detail.
