Uncanny Tales #167

In "Mr. Furman's Friend," the town's eccentric botanist, Mr. Furman, is dismissed as mad for talking to a towering plant—until the creature proves its loyalty by pulling him from a river when he nearly drowns. As suspicion swirls and the townspeople question his sanity, Mr. Furman finds himself relying on the very being they mock. With the Mayor watching closely and Max Talon lingering in the shadows, the line between madness and miracle begins to blur.
