I still don’t have a copy but I used to collect stamps so it has that crossover appeal to me. I like this one also... definitely the best early HOM IMO! Bug eyed Demons Hot Witches and Boiling Cauldrons baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah awesome art, but what was the writer smoking? Wtf is the guy talking about???? "As if anything could happen to us here amongst the skeletons!" What does that even mean? "Yeah we're perfectly safe here in this dark dank dirt floor basement pit graveyard charnel house looking place with, lets see..... at least 7 skulls rolling around. Like what's the big deal?"

Yeah the covers great, but the contents are typical tame DC. The woman is only hypnotized into thinking she’s a witch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kick myself every so often for not being more bold on my bidding. It's a cool book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 This is interesting; the seller says it's a cover proof for Unseen #14. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Buy-Offer-Unseen-14-Cover-Proof-Standard-Pre-Code-Horror-Skull-Skeleton-Cvr/202888930442?hash=item2f3d1f648a:g:lPUAAOSwbY5eFVxO Hard to know what is being shown here, but there is no age toning, markups or anything else you might expect to see on a 1950s publication piece. Idly curious, is there a chance it's original? Is it perhaps a proof from a page of a later comics reprint volume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I knew!It just looks like some sort of repro to me.All the proofs I have are the negative b/w plastics.Would the fine folks in the OA section be able to help do you think?
