Tales of Horror #9
In "The Son of Satan," Dr. Jonathan Weir acquires the sinister artifact known as the Purple Claw, unleashing a terrifying conflict with the fiendish Dr. Gool—whose twisted experiments with radioactive fluid reanimate the dead into an undead army. Penciled by Ben Brown and inked by David Gantz, this chilling tale from Tales of Horror #9 (1954) features a cover by Jack Sparling, whose stark, dramatic artwork captures the story’s gothic dread.
