Mystery in Space #111

DC's beloved anthology of interstellar suspense returns with issue #111, cover-dated September 1980, and Joe Kubert's cover sets an unsettling tone immediately — a blond child crouches amid the ruins of a burning city, clutching a small alien creature, while armored frog-like extraterrestrials loom over them against a sky filled with alien craft. The tagline "In the infinite darkness they are waiting!" perfectly captures the eerie dread Kubert renders across the scene, with a domed landmark crumbling in the flames behind them. Inside, 25 all-new pages of story and art feature talent including Jim Aparo, Marshall Rogers, Steve Ditko, and Dan Spiegle — a genuinely impressive roster for fans of 1980 DC science fiction.
