The Witching Hour #48 (1974) CGC 9.2 – Nick Cardy Cover, White Pages

Skeletal figures loom through a web-strewn room as a frightened man recoils on Nick Cardy’s cover for The Witching Hour #48. A skull-faced figure clutches colourful beads in the foreground, while the green background and red masthead frame the cover’s promise: “Curse of the Chinese Charm!”

Published by DC Comics in November 1974, this issue brings the series’ supernatural suspense into a striking, skeleton-filled composition. The CGC label credits Nick Cardy with the cover and notes a Carl Wessler story with Ruben Yandoc and Fred Carrillo art.

A visually distinctive addition for collectors of Bronze Age DC horror, particularly those building a run of Cardy’s covers. Its crowded supernatural scene contrasts nicely with the quieter, suspense-driven covers elsewhere in the series.

Front and back photographs show the actual graded comic and holder. The back cover features a period Monogram model-kit contest advertisement. Please review both images for this copy’s visible condition and presentation.
