by Oscar Rossiter ‧ RELEASE DATE: Jan. 11, 1973
A new variation on the mutant superman theme, made special by its narrator, a quirky but wholly sympathetic psychiatrist who becomes obsessed with one of his patients. The apparently catatonic Mr. Peckham neither moves nor speaks, but turns out to be the most powerful man in the world in this tale that begins with deceptive gentleness and unfolds into a full-blown nightmare.
