House of Secrets #119

From the mid-1970s DC anthology that promised there's no escape, House of Secrets #119 delivers a genuinely unsettling cover by Luis Dominguez: a bandaged, mummy-like figure wearing a strange mask staggers through a jungle village while terrified onlookers scatter in all directions, all beneath the looming shadow of a monstrous dark shape lurking behind the trees. Inside, Michael Fleisher and Russell Carley team with artist Arthur Suydam on "A Carnival of Dwarfs," a title that hints at the strange and macabre tales this anthology did so well in 1974. At just 20 cents, this issue is a fine example of DC's House of Secrets delivering eerie atmosphere and pulpy thrills.
