The Clutching Hand #1

In "The Real McCoy!", a tiny man named Harold Honeywell, newly wealthy, discovers the harsh truth about the women in his life—his fortune means more to them than he does. Fleeing from the law after a violent confrontation, he takes refuge in a circus gorilla’s cage, unaware that the beast, mourning the loss of its beloved toy doll, sees him as the perfect replacement. With art by John Rosenberger and a striking cover by Ken Bald, this 1954 tale from the American Comics Group blends suspense and surreal horror in a story that turns the idea of a "doll" on its head.
