The Phantom Stranger #31

DC's mystical wanderer strides toward genuine dread in this July 1974 issue — the caped, hat-brimmed Phantom Stranger advances on a massive stone hand that arches overhead like a gateway, while a terrified soldier crouches within, desperately firing a machine gun. A banner at the bottom promises a second threat with "Beware! The Black Orchid," making this issue a atmospheric double-header of the uncanny, rendered with moody confidence in cover art by Luis Dominguez.
