Over The Top Gore...

[awe4one]

Was going through a recent lot I won here on the Boards and the covers to some of the more cheap 70s magazines really crack me up due to their over the top gore. I guess they had to do something to separate themselves on the racks from all those Frazetta, Kelly, and Boris covers...

 

So I thought it''ll be fun, because I'm awake and bored to death, to share some of them for the Board...

 

For example...nice cleavage...

I thought this was going to be a bit about the internet-inventing, global warming former VP. I was all ready to hit the Mods button and all....

 

Uh wait. This isn't a political post at all. My reply might be though.

 

Umm just move along. Nothing to see here.

 

Nice mag, though and rarely seen. (thumbs u

Funny you should mention that,since that cover is a redrawn version of this one

The thing I find really interesting about these mags is that much of the violence is monster on monster violence. It's almost like the publishers were thinking, "hey, folks won't object to all this lurid, bloody violence if it's just vampires and werewolves and mummies ripping each other apart."
