Classic Bronze Age dread wrapped in one of the great DC horror covers ever printed. Bernie Wrightson sets the mood right on the front: moonlight, fear, velvet shadows — the kind of image that creeps into your head and stays there.
Inside, the book delivers exactly what it promises — haunted houses, cursed families, revenge with a supernatural clock on it. “Never Kill a Witch’s Son!” is the standout, pulpy and cruel in the old fairy-tale way, backed by solid supporting stories and the ever-unsettling presence of Abel guiding you deeper into the dark.
This is peak early-’70s DC horror — atmospheric, strange, and unapologetically bleak.
Maj. Picto’s Grading Notes — Fine+ (6.5)
A strong mid-grade copy with great eye appeal. Light spine wear and some general handling, but the cover still looks excellent with deep color and solid clarity. Staples are tight and clean. No missing pages, no major defects. A sharp Fine+ that displays well and reads even better.
