That issue of Ghostly Weird is, to me, one of the most nightmare-inducing covers of the Golden Age. Imagine being a kid and you're flipping through cartoon books and superheroes and you come across THAT!

For sure. But as a kid, this was the one that did it for me. My uncle gave me a few of his original ECs. This issue literally gave me nightmares after I the read the cover story. I have never forgotton it.

Cuffed to a body, likely someone you've killed, stuck in the desert.  I wonder how many times this plot device has been used in movies and episodes since.

Megan Fox starred in one most recently, but I can remember a couple others...

The cover story is disturbing but maybe not as disturbing as the opener. :ohnoez:

Same here.  It's either that or the Blue Bolt.  For me, the Ghostly Weird would be the last on the list, probably.  Nice acquisitions, though!
