Back from the opened grave are more masterpieces of the macabre from the horror comics of the 1950s. Genius horror artists of the known and unknown variety poured their tortured souls into these comics. The best and rarest stories have been chosen with the help of top horror comic collectors and all lovingly restored and presented in full-creepy color. You will be thrilled, chilled and maybe even a little sickened by the over-the-top ghouls and gore in the thick 52 page Haunted Horrors. From the fiends that brought you Dick Briefer's Frankensten, Bob Powell's Terror and Zombies in the Chilling Archives of Horror Comics. Grab Haunted Horror b more

    Comic Bastards - Carl Boehm Dec 5, 2012

    One would have to be a die-hard horror comic fan to grab this. The benefit is a collection of hard-to-find stories. Four dollars for forty-eight pages of classic horror is a good deal. And like I wrote before, these anthologies ought to be a required text for comic students. The comics reflect the time periods perfectly, but they also are so much of a guilty pleasure with their great art, colors, and stories. Read Full Review

    First Comics News - Matthew Szewczyk Dec 8, 2012

    There are five pre-code stories and boy are they an awesome look back at the golden age of comic book horror. If you love stories of werewolves and witchcraft along with a healthy dose of Edgar Allan Poe then this 42 page comic is one of the best values in comics today. Read Full Review

    Just about the best book you can buy for pre-code, golden-age horror! only $4 for 40+ pages of reprints expertly researched and lovingly printed. The only thing that holds each issue back from a "10" score is the reprint factor. Maybe that shouldn't matter... YOU decide! Highly recommended.
