Top 10 DC Horror Comic Book Covers in my collection! Bronze Age Masterpieces!

This is a response video to a Friday challenge posted by ‪@ComicCollectorGeek‬ asking the community for their Top 10 horror comic book covers. I don't have any original EC covers to share, so I thought I would post my top 10 DC horror comic books covers. In the late 1960s to mid 1970s, DC was as their finest for producing some of the best cover artwork in that period. Horror was also in the midst of a revival in comic books and DC had the best covers. I go over my favorite 10 (plus a bonus!) in my collection.

Really enjoyed seeing these as I never focused on horror beyond buying EC hardcover reprints.
A complete run of any of these DC titles would have made for great reading as well as a collecting accomplishment!

The stories are actually better than I thought, and some of the covers are amazing. Witching Hour actually lasted 85 issues!

Great video, and great taste in comics.

Thanks for watching! DC horror books from the 70s are great!
