The Unexpected #150

DC's long-running horror anthology delivers a chilling 1973 cover by Nick Cardy that earns its tagline: a decayed, skeletal figure looms from an icy hillside, wearing a battered hat and tattered coat, as an unsuspecting sledder hurtles downhill directly toward it — with more riders descending in the background, equally oblivious to the danger. The teaser "Color the Snow — Red" sets the tone perfectly for what lurks inside this September issue, promising the kind of dread-soaked tales that made The Unexpected a staple of DC's Bronze Age horror line.
