Possibly, but there was an earlier and on-going tradition in radio to have a host for suspense/horror tales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read, there was a radio program in the late '40's that featured an old witch as the host, and it was from that, that Gaines and Feldstein got the idea of having one as a comic book host on their new trend title, TFTC.

I have a few including that one. I believe Schomburg did some in-credited covers for that title. That almost certainly is a Schomburg. Cool cover!

Popular Post batman_fan Posted August 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 19, 2018 I haven't posted my Mars Attack collection for a while. I have added several since the last time. I did start buying lower grade ones to try and finish the run. Finally scored a 55, unmarked but only a 3.0. Looking at it, is seems like somewhere between a 6.0 and 7.0. Current stats, 49 of 55, average grade 6.5. 2x 3.0 1x 4.0 4x 5.0 7x 6.0 2x 6.5 31x 7.0 2xx 8.0 Larryw7, Ricksneatstuff, creaturefan95 and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't closely followed DC hero stuff in a while (except Keys), but if you replaced the images of Batman and Robin on this one with Cap and Bucky and you'd have what would be considered an instant classic cover.
