Unusual Tales #3
In "Morton the Magnificent Magician," a renowned illusionist from America is summoned to a Near Eastern country to outdo a local wonder, setting the stage for a clash of talents across continents. Written by Joe Gill and brought to life by Dick Giordano’s dynamic art and Vince Alascia’s sharp inks, the story builds intrigue around a mysterious performer whose final act leaves a lasting impression—only to vanish without a trace, leaving officials scrambling to reconcile his disappearance with the message he left behind. The cover, by Charles Nicholas and Vince Alascia, captures the enigmatic flair of the tale.
