Speaking of Cameron, I came across this story today -

Early, but still very nice work on his part.

 

What are you doing buying GA books? Are you a FH fiend now?

Now, we all know the claim about Eerie and AitU as the original Horror series but what about recurring horror features in books pre- horror series. What's the word / history on those, PCK? The reason I ask is because while I knew about the Ghost Gallery feature in Jumbo, I only became aware of the Werewolf Hunter series in Rangers today . Here's an example from Rangers 35 -

 

 

Were there any other long running horror / supernatural features prior to these ones? How far back do they go?

Mister Hands/ Thing (Addams) prototype!

 

Interesting. What were the writers swiping here -- The Beast With Five Fingers? There are many movies with animated, amputated hands but that one has the right timing. What a crazy panel with the hands on the ceiling!

 

(I can just picture a pair of Dragnet-type deadpan investigators looking over the crime scene.

"It looks like another one, Ben."

"Another what, Joe?"

"Another hand job.")

YELLOWJACKET springs to mind ASAP, I'll have to get back to you on the particular issue, but I believe the story even had a "witch" narrator.

The Yellowjackets had a narrator for a horror story with narrator for a several issue sequence.

I read somewhere that out of the 10 issues, all but two had a horror story, don't know if they were all hosted by an "Old Witch" or not. I haven't been able to pick up any YELLOWJACKETS at a cheap price to verify any of this.

I have one of them with the narrator.

I guess it's time to ask Fuelman? Doesn't he have a full run of YellowJacket?

[Forbush-Man]

Keith PM'd me about this. I have only around 3 of the issues. I will try to pull those issues and refresh my memory on the contents. I'll share my findings when done.

[Jeffro.]

Just so you guys know. I'll be putting up a modest pre-code horror/sci-fi/mystery selling thread later today. Maybe around 7pm EST.

 

A few Atlas, couple Harvey, a smattering of mostly lower to mid grade stuff. One notable book is a Journey into Unknown Worlds 36 (1)

While this might not be the best cover of the run ( # 21) there is something about those baby spiders that CREEPS me out.

Very creepy, PKC!

 

But why is the guy in the background going out for a forward pass?

He's carrying a box just like young Gunga -- but he's a mime!
