The Unexpected #146

DC's long-running horror anthology The Unexpected delivers another chilling package with issue #146, cover-dated April 1973. Nick Cardy's cover art sets an immediately unsettling scene: a skeletal, ghoulish figure rises from an open coffin in an attic-like space, while a young man raises an axe and a terrified woman recoils in the foreground beneath a cold moonlit sky — all tied together by the ominous title "Marry Me in My Grave." Inside, writer Carl Wessler and artist Sonny Trinidad bring their own macabre tale, "The Monstrosity!," to life in the tradition of DC's best early-'70s horror storytelling.
