oooh! i love the devil cover, i don't have that one yet! nice! The newton cover you posted is one of the tougher issues of the run in any shape. Its got great newton art inside too!

[awe4one]

I think the Newton cover is cool as well. It's also neat how he signed his name. You'd miss it if you weren't looking closely.....

I'm going to pick up some Charltons now....

[shiverbones]

Charltons from 1973-1976 are the best. The artistic line up was great & the stories were pretty good too. I am consistently impressed with them!

[sterlingcomics]

I'll pick up some readers and let ya know what I think...some of these covers are pretty good, and the few issues I picked up as a kid were pretty creepy too (I usually just didn't like the cheap paper and some of the art--but by the time I picked up my copies around 1977 or so they were decidedly going downhill).

Archie/Red Circle Fave Cover!

[Susanville]

Don't know if this one's been up yet (with so many pages) but I just picked it up the other day and am pretty happy with it...

 

[shiverbones]

that red circle is one of my favorite 70's covers. I am in love with that vampire

i finally found a NM, but its off center by a bit.

Sorry, still haven't figured out how to post scans but I recently purchased a beautiful Weird Mystery Tales #2 which has a Titanic cover/story. It's worth putting up if anybody has one. Great cover. ------Sid

i have a NM copy, i'll try to scan it later!

Thanks Shiver, you are the Bronze Horror Man! Hey, I was wondering what you thought of the original EC comics (Tales From The Crypt, Vault Of Horror, etc)? I know they pre-date our books by 20 years but I believe they pioneered the short-story horror format that DC emulated later on (as well as many others). The art and stories are fantastic in those books. Of course they are harder to collect and much more expensive. Just wondering about yours and the others thoughts about the EC books in comparison to the Bronze DC anthologies. -----Sid

A couple of JIMs. Are these "supahot"?

 

 

[Metarog]

Keep them coming! I have really enjoyed this thread. I only wish I had more to contribute here. Unforturnately I only have some Marvel psuedo-horror titles and my oddball one-shots. Here is the only Horror comic put out by Skywald-

My lord is that not an LB Cole pallette if I ever saw one???

[shiverbones]

sorry sid i was out all night, i'll post that scan tomorrow! I love pre code horror, including EC. I at one point had about 200 pre code comics, but have trimmed that down to 70 or 80 i really love. THere are so many great comics put out then its staggering! I do have to say though that in terms of quality, outside of EC, its pretty much parallel to 70's horror. A lot of people complain about the spanish & filipino artists in the bronze age, but the truth is they draw circles around the stock artists of the 50's. Now there is an undeniable charm associated with 50's layman art, so i am not knocking it, that is one of the reasons i find them irresistable. At any rate i guess i love horror comics in general. I feel i am focusing energy on bronze right now because there is so much undiscovered greatness in it.

 

 

Love those Sabrina Books by the way!

This was the first cover I thought of when Shiver was noting the lack of Marvels around here...

[shiverbones]

that was probably the first marvel horror i ever bought except for ghost rider back in the day. I pulled it out of a 3 for a $ box. Still lovve that Kane cover

 

Speaking of Marvel & Kane covers, this is not horror per se, but it IS the 1st postcode vampire in comics
