Jayman Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 4 winners in a row! That Chilling Tales (despite the miscut) looks to be in great shape! (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Thanks! Yeah it is a really solid book, some faint corner creases, and a 2" faint center crease, but overall, really flat & fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Last for today, but certainly not least! This issue contains one of the most twisted and horrific stories I have ever seen in a horror comic. A man goes to see a witch about being eternally young, and his wish is granted, he doesn't age & can't die. Well he ends up getting himself hung. He can't die, so now he is running around with his head totally spun around backwards. Since he can't see where he is going he walks into a fire and burns his hands & half of his face off. So now he is stumbling through the rest of the story in a panic, horribly disfigured AND with his head facing the wrong way, trying to get the witch to kill him. The panels of him walking with the head spun around are just WRONG! Cool story. Shades of The Monkey's Paw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjpb Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Shiv - you are on a roll! Easy VG + on the CT - that was shipped fast! Sorry about the miscut but at least it's the type not the art. And yes please - backwards burnt head panels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) you had the chance... Thanks! Great sellers BTW (big guys comics), profesional from the get go, bomb proof packaging. Here are two pages from the messed up hanging story, it's the best I could do I am afraid to flatten the book too much.

shiverbones Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (thumbs u I think what makes the story even more horrible is the way he keeps saying how much pain he is in. That really makes you FEEL what he is going through, as opposed to just a messed up visual...shudder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
