There's enough of both similarities and differences that I wonder if they're both referencing a third original, rather than the Vampi swiping directly from the pulp cover. In one of the Vampirella art books that someone has posted before, I remember seeing photos of models being posed for Enrich as reference. Perhaps there’s more info in the book.

Flex Mentallo Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Unfortunately pulps aggravate my asthma. So I collect books on the subject instead.

[Though not so shudder-some!] Sad that he died at the tender age of 35, so we never got to see what he might have done with, say post-war detective, crime and war mag covers as we did with Saunders!

Popular Post Bugfarm Posted February 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2023 I splurged and grabbed a batch of pulps over the weekend. Like in comics, I’m worried I’m rapidly being priced out of the market. I figured I should suck it up and grab what I can now. (I bought 2 copies of Horror Stories Oct-Nov ‘36, I love the cover and I don’t see it come available too often.)
