Popular Post Jayman Posted October 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Of course you have the classic “Swamp Monster” story By Basil Wolverton in this issue. Since it’s the title of your thread I thought it appropriate!

Since it’s the title of your thread I thought it appropriate! Thanks. I LOVE Wolverton. With the exception of Solomon Grundy's first appearance, Weird Mysteries #5 might be the most desirable (expensive) golden age swamp monster issue. If memory serves me correctly, the monster on the splash page doesn't show up in the rest of the issue. I'll reread my reprint and double check.

True, but Cabot does change into an even weirder looking swamp monster In the rest of the story. So the splash page represents IMO, a scene where that bat creature was shown flying around after changing another victim into a swamp monster. Either way we get treated to 2 renditions of monsters by Wolverton. Win, win! Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story like on the inside? I seem to recall someone saying the Swamp Spirit story is quite different than the cover, but I could be mistaken.

Paul © ® ⚽️💙™ Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Feldstein did an early swamp story for EC. In fact thinking about it, it was probably one of many....

Jasonmorris1000000 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 I tried watching an episode of Riverdale years ago and Ms. Grundy was young, pretty, and sleeping with Archie. It was really weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
