House of Mystery #216

Aug 1973 · DC · 0.20 USD
“Look Into My Eyes... and Kill!”

In "Look Into My Eyes... and Kill!", Sergio Aragonés delivers a trio of delightfully twisted gags in House of Mystery #216, where the usual rules of heroism and surprise take a comically sinister turn. From a gargoyle outsmarting a knight in a classic rescue, to a drive-in movie gone awry, and a climber’s eagle nest reveal that’s anything but what it seems, the humor is sharp and the visuals are pure Aragonés—witty, surreal, and perfectly paced. The cover by Luis Dominguez captures the issue’s offbeat spirit with a striking, eye-catching image.
