“The Adventure of the Angel's Smile!”

DC's long-running anthology of dread delivers a genuinely unsettling image in this 1981 issue: a desperate man recoils in terror as a robed, scythe-wielding skeleton lunges at him from a fiery, rock-hewn abyss — all beneath the chilling tagline "Nightmare… or Reality? Corpses in Quicksand!" Michael Wm. Kaluta's cover art strikes a vivid balance between gothic atmosphere and visceral horror, with the orange-and-yellow hellscape giving the scene an almost fever-dream intensity. The Unexpected #212 also boasts interior work from a talented creative team including writer Mike W. Barr and artist Trevor Von Eeden, making this a satisfying read for fans of classic DC horror anthologies.
