The Unexpected #201

Outside a wax museum, a terrified red-haired woman is cornered by a menacing axe-wielding figure while grotesque wax monsters loom behind them — it's a wonderfully unnerving setup that captures the spirit of DC's long-running horror anthology. The cover, penciled by Jim Janes and inked by Dick Giordano, teases a tale called "About Mirrors in a Madhouse," with a speech bubble darkly quipping "Correction, my dear — she is you!" Inside, the 1980 issue delivers original horror with contributions from writers Mary Skrenes and Guy Lillian, artist Don Heck, inker Vince Colletta, and letterer Ben Oda — a solid creative team lending their talents to one of DC's most reliably chilling titles.
