“The Menace of the Magic Metal”

Two towering mechanical titans clash on this August 1962 DC cover, rendered with striking geometric energy by Mort Meskin — a sleek grey robot locked in a crushing grapple with a faceted, orange-and-gold mechanical giant amid crackling bursts of electricity. In the foreground, a horrified man and woman look on as a speech balloon warns that the robot sent to stop the creature is now absorbing its destructive power, doubling the danger. House of Secrets #55 promises the kind of escalating, science-gone-wrong tension that made DC's mystery-adventure anthology a reliable thrill at twelve cents.
