“Ruby!”

House of Mystery #284 brings the September 1980 DC anthology to unsettling life with a Michael Wm. Kaluta cover that commands attention: a crouching, bat-winged child with glowing yellow eyes clutches a small orb, its fanged grin daring you to look away against a deep crimson background. The tagline "Do You Dare Enter?" feels entirely earned when paired with an image this effectively creepy. Inside, J. M. DeMatteis and artist Noly Zamora contribute to eight extra pages of shock and suspense, including the story "Ruby!" — making this a satisfyingly packed installment of DC's long-running horror anthology.
