“The Abominable Ivy!”

In "The Abominable Ivy!", Sergio Aragonés delivers a delightfully twisted trio of gag cartoons in House of Mystery #218, a 20-cent comic from 1973. From a two-headed monster juggling two dates to a grave-side gardener facing a soggy specter, and a canoeist stumbling upon swamp-dwelling horrors, each absurd scenario is drawn with Aragonés’ signature chaotic flair. The cover by George Evans captures the issue’s offbeat tone with a perfectly bizarre image to match.
