Note how the head falls off even as the axe is raised to cut it.

Must have been a defective Frankenstein Monster. hm

I really like this cover. Note the bullet holes on the mummy's skull. Really cool horror cover...

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

 

:roflmao:

I'll bet the first one didn't sell so well, so they took off the head and added blood. It was a market test book. hm

Thanks for posting these, Jim. I've always been curious what was on the insides of these mags. I've never owned one, but the covers are gore-geous. :luhv:

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... lol

 

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...

Myron Fass's Eerie Publications -- yow!

 

The issue numbering is haphazard, covers are swiped and reused, then suddenly a science fiction cover that Fass bought cheap shows up (like you show here). What a sleazy publisher!

 

I uploaded lots of the covers to the GCD galleries a while back. I don't own them, but found the images on line. I had to take a shower afterward, and not because I was excited. Some of your copies are nicer than the gallery ones, but I don't really want to look again.

if you look closely, you can just make out a "GM" badge on the monster's lower back

The one I flipped through seems to have a mix of new and 40-50s B&W reprint stories. None reach the level of the covers but there is one panel showing a monster decapitating a guy with a swng of it's hand in the lead story... :o
