☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Rommbu!", a desperate gangster turns to a mysterious pincushion doll—its likeness to his rival eerily precise—hoping to curse him with each pin. When the doll’s fate takes a shocking turn after being thrown from a skyscraper, the line between fear and reality begins to blur. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with art by Don Heck and lettering by Artie Simek, this 1971 Marvel tale blends dark humor and suspense, all framed by a striking cover by Marie Severin and Jack Kirby, inked by Dick Ayers and Marie Severin.
In "Rommbu!", a fugitive geologist named Rommbu makes a desperate stand against an alien invader by luring it into an active volcano, hoping to end the threat at great personal cost. With the fate of the planet hanging in the balance, Rommbu’s plan unfolds alongside the uneasy presence of Pete Hunter and his brother John Hunter, whose roles in the crisis remain shrouded in tension and uncertainty.
Vince Kane’s paranoia spirals when he buys a pincushion doll meant to resemble his rival, Al Rocco—only to find the pins he sticks in it seem to mirror Rocco’s own pain. When he hurls the doll from a high window, he’s stunned to see it land with a familiar face: Al Rocco’s, but wearing his own features.
