House of Mystery #235

From the shadowy doorway of DC's long-running anthology comes House of Mystery #235, featuring the ominous tale "Wings of Black Death." Luis Dominguez's cover sets an immediate mood of dread: a red-haired woman in a flowing green dress flees in terror through a cobblestoned street, while a massive, grotesque winged creature looms over the rooftops behind her and a monstrous clawed hand reaches in from the foreground. With interior art by Nestor Redondo and a script by David Michelinie, this September 1975 issue delivers exactly the kind of eerie, atmospheric horror that made House of Mystery a staple of the era.
