Madhouse

Madhouse, a 1954 Farrell comic book series, is a short-lived but memorable entry into the pre-Code horror genre, running for just four issues. Known for its lurid, often grim tales and striking covers, the series is most associated with artists like Bob Powell and Howard Nostrand, who brought a visceral energy to its stories of monsters, mad scientists, and the macabre. Though brief, Madhouse endures as a vivid snapshot of the era's unfiltered horror comics before the Comics Code Authority reshaped the industry.
