In "Cake!", Mr. Ellison teams up with a magician to end his dull marriage, only to uncover a chilling truth after his wife’s death. Written by John Albano and brought to life with eerie precision by Rubén Sosa, this unsettling tale from House of Mystery #233 (1975) blends dark humor and dread in a story that lingers long after the final page. The haunting cover by Michael Wm. Kaluta captures the issue’s unsettling tone perfectly.
