Yet another “Trade Show” entry from this badass blogger right here…

HOUSE OF MYSTERY VOL. 2

DC/VERTIGO

This second installment of Matthew Sturges and Bill Willingham’s reinvention of a DC classic raises the bar from quirky horror storytelling to the threshold of a sprawling epic on par with their work on Fables and Jack of Fables. Featuring an arsenal of wicked artists such as Mouse Guard’s David Petersen and Swamp Thing’s Bernie Wrightson alongside series mainstay Luca Rossi, this volume delves into what goes on below the House in its enigmatic basement as lead heroine Fig learns about her father’s secrets and a bit more about her reticent love interest, barkeep Harry. As engaging as any comic on stands today, House of Mystery has cryptic rooms left to explore while still begging you to step back into each collection in search of more clues.
