As much as I like the atmospheric aspect Kubert accomplished with this cover, it doesn’t quite meet the weird or horrifying aspects, not helped by the giant box advertising what’s in the comic: Source: CB+

Did L. B. Cole draw this cover, or was it that Ellis Chambers drew it and that Cole inked it? Source: CB+

Yeah, it doesn’t go far enough in the visual impact of the monsters, at least when compared to Norman Nodel‘s penciling of the monsters from City of the Living Dead:

It’s interesting, because Harold Delay drew this considerably darkly cover in 1940:

There’s also this cover. The signature is somewhat cut off at the bottom though:

Fantastic Comics #7 (June, 1940):

The Field Guide makes mention of a Roland Patenaude whose work included Fox material. Is it that his credits were mixed up with Ramona‘s? https://www.pulpartists.com/Patenaude.html

Just noticed a “Pat” on the bottom-right section of this cover, which I’m sure signifies it was drawn by Roland Patenaude, right? Source: CB+

Was looking over some Fox art and I think I was able to make a reasonably educated guess of one of the Flame stories as possibly having been drawn by Larry Antonette, the one in question being from The Flame #6 (August, 1941), under the pen name of “Basil Berold”: And got me wondering if there were not only more interior art, but also Flame cover art drawn by him that has otherwise been left uncredited. A lot of it has been given a possible attribution of Arturo Cazeneuve, whose style I’m not as familiar with.

I’ve seen the cover attributed to Larry Antonette, whose art I was analyzing earlier today actually. There’s also a William E. Rowland listed in Jerry Bails’ Who’s Who as if being a real person and not a pen name though, so I’m not sure.

Perhaps the best art I’ve seen from Nina Albright yet (4Most #v7#3, May 1948):

Gotta say, Fantastic Comics, particularly issue 6 from 1940, stands out to me because even though many would probably agree that the art is too crude to be good, it still probably lends itself more to providing interesting/non-boring art, as opposed to the artists having drawn less supernatural stories like in the traditional crime or romances genres: Joe Simon: Alex Blum: Grieg Chapian: Fletcher Hanks: Bill Bossert: “Karl Kief”: Source: CB+

L. B. Cole (Ghostly Weird Stories #120, September 1953):

Yeah, I’ll try to be more clear sooner where I should. Sorry for any confused envy. Haha. Thanks!

I guess I’m not generally like everyone else then. The way I see it, either it’s fine to share and appreciate public domain comics on these boards, or it isn’t fine. I felt confident that I was going about it fine, and thus didn’t worry myself over it, but since I now see you point this out, then I now apologize if I wasn’t clear or am posting in the wrong threads. On the other hand, there are people such as Jayman telling me that my posts are informative and enjoyable, and I’m sure compliments like that are reasonable enough reasons for me to keep on posting as I am, in addition to my personal interests and passions. That said though, if truthfully I have to use another thread, or even be redirected to another Golden Age forum website, and thus result in less confusion amongst you guys showcasing comics you’ve achieved in having scored and paid for, then I’ll accept that. If not, then I’ll just move on as I am then and enjoy myself, along with anyone else enjoying themselves as well.

I think it would have made for a great cover too. The cover drawn by Bill Fraccio is still nice though.

Nope. They’re not. They’re scans I like sharing from public domain site comicbookplus.
