“The Secret Seven of Staleyville”

From DC's mystery anthology series comes House of Secrets #53, dated April 1962. The cover — penciled by Dick Dillin and inked by Sheldon Moldoff — presents a striking scene: a giant figure of Mark Merlin blasts devastating energy beams from his eyes toward a towering structure, while two smaller figures — a woman in red and a young man — scramble for safety nearby, exchanging dialogue about why this ancient double, once known only for good deeds, has turned destructive. It's a wonderfully strange Silver Age puzzle wrapped in bold colors and the irresistible tagline "Mark Merlin's Giant Double!
