So, it's a sunny day in May, 1975. You've got some change in your pocket goin' jing-a-ling-a-ling, so you slip into the nearest drugstore to check out what's on the spinner rack. Ah, there's the latest House of Mystery (#234, to be precise). That's always a cool mag. Dependable. A little creepy. Nice Ernie Chua (Chan) cover. Cool looking lead-off tale by Michael (the Spectre, Jonah Hex) Fleisher and Jess Jodloman. Then the back-up feature captures your eye. A supernatural western yarn by (birthday boy) Jack Oleck. Now that's gotta be good. And the art looks extra far-out--hey, it's Al Milgrom, the cat who's been killing it over on Marvel's Captain Marvel! And is that Cain, our horrifying host himself, in the story? Okay, dude-behind-the-counter, here's my quarter! And here's today's random read for you, Groove-ophiles: "Lafferty's Luck"!
