House of Mystery #190
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn House of Mystery #190, Sergio Aragonés delivers a delightfully twisted series of single-panel gags that turn the mundane into the macabre with a wink. From a startled man sharing a bench with a grinning gargoyle to a hunter mistaking a flamingo for a butterfly, the humor leans into playful horror with a touch of the absurd. Neal Adams’ sharp, expressive cover art perfectly captures the issue’s eerie-yet-funny tone.
In "A Witch Must Die!", a desperate man named Jabob risks everything to save the beautiful Ruth and her daughter Ester from a mob hunting witches in 16th-century Europe—only to uncover a chilling truth that may doom them all. The story unfolds with quiet dread, weaving faith, fear, and fate into a haunting tale where mercy may be the greatest curse of all.
