In "A Stranger Among Us," a stagehand’s secret crush leads him to impersonate the leading man in a production of Cyrano De Bergerac—only to find that his disguise is more than just makeup. When the woman he loves rejects his confession, claiming she’s in love with the stagehand, he’s stunned to realize he’s trapped in his own deception. With art by Joe Maneely and lettering by Joe Letterese, this 1956 tale of identity and mistaken desire unfolds in a single, tense moment of revelation. The cover, also by Joe Maneely, captures the eerie intimacy of the transformation.
