Secrets of Haunted House #19

Secrets of Haunted House v1 #19, 1979 - Set during the French Revolution, Alex Nino draws a tale of a town executioner and his longtime rival the Magistrate. Sharp, angular strokes fill the pages, resulting in harsh, even disturbing imagery. Even the climax seems more silly than shocking. On the positive side, the variety of panel shapes and layouts are masterful. The long verticals that emphasize the guillotine's height are particularly effective. Other artists in this bronze age comic include Den Ingente, Buddy Grenale and Luiz Domingez (cover). This is 3 of 3 Secrets of Haunted House issues by Nino. /// Nino gallery
