House of Mystery #90
In "The Invasion of the Energy Creatures!", a European city marks its 1000-year anniversary with eerie echoes of the past, as the legendary Crimson Folio—once thought a mere record of history—reveals itself as a prophecy book. With events from its pages beginning to unfold again, the descendant of the final victim faces a terrifying fate as the past threatens to consume the present. Art by Mort Meskin and George Roussos brings the creeping dread to life, while Bob Brown’s cover captures the moment the city’s fate turns.
