In "The Graveyard Waxworks," Bill Everett crafts a chilling tale where a deranged photographer’s enchanted camera and living film trap Venus in a flat, frozen world. When Whitney Hammond tracks her down, the fate of the two-dimensional heroine hangs in the balance. A striking, all-Bill Everett effort with haunting visuals and a pulse-pounding premise, this 1951 10-cent gem stands out in the series' eerie legacy.
