The House of Mystery: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 2

DC · 840 pages · Omnibus

Part of the DC Omnibus guide — every release, in reading order

Welcome to the House of Mystery, where bone-chilling (and rib-tickling) revelations haunt every dark and shadowed room—and people are dying to get in!

One of the most celebrated anthology titles of the Bronze Age of comics, The House of Mystery earned its iconic status in the early 1970s under the skillful hands of editor Joe Orlando, whose uncanny aptitude for the fearsome and the frightful brought forth a sumptuous smorgasbord of arcane amusements in every enchanting installment.

Now these classic tales of the weird and the otherworldly are gathered for the first time in a handsome hardcover edition. House of Mystery: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 2 collects issues #201-226 of the acclaimed series and features scarily sublime work from a horde of comics' greatest artists, including Len Wein, Jack Kirby, Bernie Wrightson, Marv Wolfman, Frank Thorne, Alex Niño, Jack Sparling, Jim Aparo, Nestor Redondo, Jack Oleck, Gerry Talaoc, Michael Wm. Kaluta, Sergio Aragonés, and many more!

Collects House of Mystery #201-226.
