Notes: A portly man decides to drive on after
hitting a man with his car. When he arrives in a nearby village, he doesn't understand why
everyone is looking at him. But when he is dragged out of his car to be lynched he sees
they aren't crazy... the body of his victim is still hanging from his front bumper. - Ger A.

Notes: I have written about this story before and it continues to baffle me who the artist is. It is
very similar to A-570 Detour from Mystic #10, a signed story by Fass, but very unlike all of
the earlier and later Fass work. It's also not signed, where most of Fass's work is. - Ger A.
