Where Creatures Roam #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "I Spent Midnight with the Monster on Bald Mountain!", a colossal floating head looms over New York, declaring itself the vanguard of an alien invasion and demanding mass evacuation. With panic spreading and the head destroying a warehouse to prove its might, a young boy steps forward with a startling revelation: the entire spectacle is a clever ruse by criminals aiming to exploit the chaos. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with dynamic art by Paul Reinman and lettering by Artie Simek, this 1970 Marvel classic blends sci-fi dread with a twist rooted in human ingenuity. The cover, a striking collaboration by Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, captures the eerie spectacle in bold, otherworldly detail.
In "I Spent Midnight with the Monster on Bald Mountain!", sculptor Anton Gorge finds his creations come to life when the statue of Evil rises to attack him—only for the statue of Good to intervene, forcing both into a desperate flight that ends in a swamp. As midnight chimes, the line between art and terror blurs, and survival hinges on an alliance no one could have foreseen.
When a giant floating head hovers over New York, declaring an alien invasion and demanding evacuation, chaos erupts—until a young boy steps forward with a shocking truth. With Mayor Robert F. Wagner, Jr. watching from afar and a shadowy figure named Hank Rogers pulling strings, the city’s fate hangs on whether the boy’s daring accusation can be believed.
In "I Am the Man Without a Face!", Rufus Watkins finds himself trapped beneath a black hood he can never take off after a gypsy's curse turns his bigotry into a lifelong punishment. What begins as a mob-driven act of hate spirals into a haunting, unseen torment—his face hidden, his identity lost, and his fate sealed by the very fear he once imposed.
