House of Mystery #312

A graveyard at dusk sets an wonderfully eerie stage for this 1983 installment of DC's House of Mystery, spotlighting the "I… Vampire!" feature. Michael Wm. Kaluta's cover depicts the pale, cape-clad vampire lord scrambling urgently through a cemetery, a sinister black cat perched nearby and a large, looming bat-creature swooping down against a fiery orange sky. With a story titled "The Thing in the Tunnels" and a creative team including writers Dan Mishkin and Gary Cohn alongside artist Adrian Gonzales, this issue delivers exactly the atmospheric supernatural tension that made this anthology series a compelling corner of the DC line.
