House of Secrets #94 – Bernie Wrightson art & cover, Alex Toth reprint

Bernie Wrightson

House of Secrets v1 #94, 1971 - Celia Graves, a former flapper from the roaring '20s, is now elderly and alone. Regretful about what happened to an old suitor, she uses black magic to bring him back. Bernie Wrightson contributes partial inks, which minimally improve to Alan Weiss' pencils. His hand seems most evident on the first three pages. This story was later re-published in DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #17.  Wrightson's cover, by contrast, is outstanding in its depiction of menace and horror. Rounding out the issue is a fine Alex Toth reprint from House of Mystery #109. Other artists in this bronze age comic include Jim Aparo, George Roussos, Nick Cardy and Tony DeZuniga. This is 3 of 11 House of Secrets issues by Wrightson. /// Wrightson gallery
