Ever wonder what somebody looks like after Godzilla steps on 'em?

Well here ya go with this cover of Giant Monster!

Sheesh, though they ought to have titled it "Giant Price" with that $6.99 tag!

This looks to be a good book but to be honest I haven't gotten around to reading it yet.

But from flipping through it, it seems to have a "Pirates of the Caribbean" feel.

Here's an interesting book. A smaller format book by Steve Niles and Nikki Niles.

Not sure whether Nikki is his wife or daughter but it is a strange story with a "Tim Burton" feel to it.

Last for now but WOW, I really like this book! Story is getting interesting and the cover speaks for itself!

The cover artist is Oscar Rodriguez and I recommend checking out his art on his web page It IS pretty cool stuff!

That is a pretty cool idea for a cover....

1) I'm surprised that no one mentioned Flinch, the Vertigo horror anthology from the 90s.

It lasted long enough to create a handful of classics.

 

 

2) The Drive-in by Lansdale has already been mentioned, but its so F&*ked up that I have to recommend it myself.

3) Weird Western Tales, Weird War Tales and Gangland by Vertigo were all great minis.

 

4) Trailer Park of Terror is a low production value favorite. But it may be hard to find.

5) Lansdale and Truman's On the Far Side With Dead Folks is a decent zombie title.

Well I hope that I can contribute to keeping this thread afloat. Why isn't it stuck to the top so that we don't have to dig it up all of the time? How do we make that happen?

Well, the Mods have to make that call. It would help if the thread was contributed to on more of a regular basis.

 

I started a thread in the GA section that has over 21,000 views & 1,500 posts, but it hasn't been made "sticky" yet. Don't hold your breath!

Yeah but Horror threads are always fun to "dig up"

Here's another that I rarely see. Its from 1994 and has pre-code Horror reprints. Worth tracking down.

One reason to pick it up: ERIC POWELL ART!

I remember when this issue came out. I read it that night and at the end of the book it had an e-mail address to leave feedback. I left a message something like Troll Bridge rocks! and within 15 min. Dan Brereton e-mails me back to say thanks!

A couple of western horrors!
