Now this is cool! This issue's Phantom Stranger installment was pencilled and inked by the master, Jose Luis Garcia Lopez.
This also happens to be one of Paul Kupperberg's best Stranger stories, so I present the entire tale for you to enjoy:
...perfect combo of story and art, this is a minor classic.
If all of The Phantom Stranger stories had been this good, he would've been one of DC's biggest stars!

What a funky, funny story, ending with a demon baby being clubbed by a priest with a giant crucifix! Really reminds me of one of those overwrought demonic possession movies in the mid 70's that followed in the wake of the success of "The Exorcist". I loved it. The artwork was great too; the final panel of page 3 is a great image.
Gosh, there was some really good work going on in that weekly Action Comics experiment. Where was I? Why wasn't I buying this, then? Oh vell. No use crying over (or trying to remember the location of) spilt beer. Thanks for bringing this mini-classic back to the light of day.
Oh wow, this got every one going - fascinating input mixed with a good read.
