Today in Comics History: October 2, 2:38 AM: Down these vertiginous streets a man must go

Hey, a private eye investigating the protagonists (you can't call 'em heroes) of the Vertigo version of House of Secrets! P.I. Nick Calderone's minute-by-minute note-taking of the bizarre activities of Rain Harper, Ben Volk, and Traci and the titular big spooky manse surely will make exhiilarating and thrilling posts for the next three days, right? (Say right.)


from House of Secrets (1996 series) #19 (DC/Vertigo, May 1998), script by Steven T. Seagle, pencils and inks by Teddy Kristiansen, colors by Bjarne Hansen, color separations by Heroic Age, letters by Todd Klein

First up: hangin' around outside the House o' Secrets in the middle of the night! Hope you got coffee and donuts in your car, Nick. By the way, can I have a donut? the one filled with jelly, please. Mmmm, jelly donut.


from House of Secrets (1996 series) #18 (DC/Vertigo, April 1998), script by Steven T. Seagle, pencils and inks by Teddy Kristiansen, colors by Bjarne Hansen, color separations by Heroic Age, letters by Todd Klein

You won't escape the Notebooks of Nick Calderone for the next handful of days! I can hear you sighing in resignation from here.

If that girl has a trail of cops and druggies and whores attached to her, just walking around must be exhausting.
