This book is from what I call "The Premise" collection...the premise being that it's nowhere near nice enough to belong to a pedigree...hm

But, on a serious note...Would this be considered a horror cover?

It's a hybrid:  superhero + horror

I have a copy  and it doesn't have a werewolf story.  I think the stories may be a little more gruesome but not horror

Not all of them are BW. Depends on the publisher and whether it's a regular edition or an annual one. For Timely, all or nearly are probably BW.

 

International licensing was involved, one cannot keep doing this for years, even for decades, illegally.

 

Publishers just didn't know or simple didn't care. I am fairly sure they didn't receive a copy of the vast majority of international editions. And even if they did know, they possibly wouldn't care. The books would never show up in the US anyway and probably only a few people were involved in international licensing.

 

 

IMO, they are often better, wheter being partial redraws of the original cover like this...

....or inspired from an interior panel (or more than one) like thesegibi-30.jpeg.b0b3f697996fe99bc977adcc0b410386.jpeg:

The above MM40 redraw was made by Gutemberg "Guto" Monteiro, that would in future, work on Creepy, Eerie and Tom & Jerry dailies. Apparently there is a guy that have some of his OA. By the way, there is certainly more than five copies of this Globo n°43.

I grabbed the Gibi 81 that swipes Marvel 80 a few months ago, but I'd really like to get the 142 that swipes the Submariner splash from MM 3. They're rare as hell.

Congrats on the Gibi Mensal 81A. Cool cover, hopefully I will find a copy one these days.

About Gibi 142/Gibi Mensal 4, tell me: Where did you get such nice images of it, especially the inner page one?

By the way, in case you don't know, these exists:
