☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Call Him... Fear!" is a standout tale from Uncanny Tales #76 (1971), featuring a hauntingly simple yet powerful story by Stan Lee, illustrated with striking clarity by John Forte. In this memorable one-shot, a small-time racketeer’s desperate attempt to evade judgment after death—armed with borrowed wings and a robe—unravels in a moment of quiet, devastating truth. The cover, a masterful blend of shadow and dread by Gene Colan, perfectly captures the story’s eerie, introspective tone.
In "The Wings!" from Uncanny Tales #76 (1971), Mr. Smart finds himself on an unexpected journey after death, clutching a pair of wings and a robe he hopes will help him pass unnoticed in the afterlife. But as he tries to blend in among the celestial crowd, he discovers that even in heaven, his old tricks don’t work—just like they never did on Earth.
