“The Dead Don't Always Die”

DC's long-running horror anthology The Unexpected dares you to face issue #183, with a cover by Luis Dominguez that sets an unsettling mood right away. A cheerful man clutches what appears to be a document marked with a number 13, laughing with a smiling woman — blissfully unaware that a looming, scythe-wielding Grim Reaper stands right behind him, whispering that his "lucky day" of inheriting his uncle's fortune may not be so lucky after all. Inside, George Kashdan and Ernesto Patricio deliver "The Dead Don't Always Die," promising exactly the kind of strange tales of shock and suspense that made this series a staple of 1978 DC horror.
