Pantodude Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) In the spirit of oddballs, here's a cool book that is certifiably unreadable without the included 3-D glasses. I didn't know the blue label required the insert be present (3-D glasses), so I was lucky it was there when slabbed. But unfortunately, I never read the book because I didn't want to remove the insert or open its plastic packaging.

Leaving aside the superhero-with-horror-elements comic covers (Wonderworld #7, Zip #22, etc etc), is there a title with straight horror covers earlier than this one? Honestly it really depends what one can get away with from what I’ve seen, and even comics that had a code or were at least in the post-code era were arguably just as effective. Anyway, this cover for Funny Pages #38 (June, 1940) stuck out to me: Joshua33, goldust40 and Ltpink2002 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
