Skeleton Hand #2
Skeleton Hand #2 Synopsis This issue contains two supernatural stories. In "Skeleton Hand: Secrets of the Supernatural," a man named Ted Johnson encounters a mysterious serpent-goddess named Seta in Cairo who enthralls him and feeds on his terror through a supernatural bat creature, which is ultimately destroyed by winged figures, freeing him from her control. In a second story, Ted travels to a Cairo hotel where he discovers a talisman called "the Mark of the Tomb" that begins to paralyze him; he races to retrieve a key while being pursued by the spirit of Mazra, but manages to escape her supernatural grasp at the final moment.
