The Phantom Stranger #34 by DC (National Periodical Publications) from January, 1974. Wow! A VF-Mint copy of one of DC's spookier titles...The Phantom Stranger was a cloaked figure who fought the forces of darkness to avenge wrongs done to the downtrodden masses. If Mr. Pop Top can draw a comparison to the early days of radio, he was part "Mysterious Traveler" and part "Shadow"! A classic Jim Aparo cover on this one, with the story "A Death in the Family" drawn by the moody Gerry Talaoc. There is a backup story "...and the Dog Howls Through the Night" featuring Dr. 13, the Ghost Breaker, with art by Tony DeZuniga. A wonderfully creepy issue! Magazine dimensions 10" x 7". Only one in stock. Mooo-ahh-ahhh-ahhhhhhh!!!
