☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Horror of the Dungeons," a 1942 Fox Comics classic, the fate of a cursed ruby hangs in the balance as ancient evil stirs beneath the earth. Written by Alex Andrea and illustrated by Louis Cazeneuve and Harry Lucey, the story unfolds with Sir Henry’s dire warning and the deadly allure of the sacred gem, as greed and terror collide in a forgotten dungeon. The cover by Roland Patenaude captures the dread of the moment, a 10-cent glimpse into a world where resurrection brings more than answers—it brings ruin.
V-Man faces a sinister threat lurking in the dungeons as the villainous Baron Von Und Zu Schultz, alongside his conspirators Talya and the newly introduced Grossen, set their dark plans in motion. With danger closing in from all sides, V-Man must navigate the horror that awaits him in the depths to stop their scheme before it's too late.
When Baron Von Und Zu Schultz and his ally Talya plot to sabotage a crucial Allied naval base treaty in the French colony of Dakra, V-Man—operating undercover as entertainer Jerry Steele—must outmaneuver the Nazi agents and their deadly henchman Grossen across two continents. With V-agent Ginger and a network of secret resistance fighters at his side, V-Man faces poison claws, treacherous schemes, and the shadow of certain doom as the fate of nations hangs in the balance. Will democracy's champion survive long enough to stop the Baron's sinister plot?
In a forgotten corner of a 1942 fantasy anthology, Sir Henry’s warning hangs in the air as the resurrected Athor reveals the sacred ruby—its power too great for mortal hands. When the jewel falls during a clash between Kalkor and Athor, Nagana snatches it and vanishes, leaving behind a rift that could unleash something far worse than death.
In "Cursed Wealth," Father Jessup listens to the dying confession of a man burdened by past greed, vowing to return stolen wealth—only for Carron's "staff" to block the redemption, and the Banshee to step in. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, exploring guilt and restitution in a world where moral choices carry unseen weight.
