CoronaVirus Comics THING "Red Death"

A pandemic rips though an ancient kingdom...
...in one of the most obvious rip-offs of Edgar Allan Poe's "Masque of the Red Death" I've ever seen!
This never-reprinted tale from Charlton's The Thing #2 (1952) was illustrated by Bob Forgione, but the Poe-stealing writer is unknown!
Note: This is part of an on-going series throughout the entire RetroBlog line featuring disease/epidemic/pandemic tales!
