RAFT OF MONSTROUS SIMILARITIES


Browsing more old comic covers these two certainly rang a bell! 

The top Amazing Stories is from June 1926.

Creepy #18 is from January 1968.

42 years later!

Anyone know the story behind these two covers?

  1. Now that's a cool piece of detective work, finding these similar covers which were printed decades apart. Wonderfully dramatic vintage artwork. Great find Woodsy.

  2. Hi Woodsy, Yes I do. I particularly like the vivid front cover art of these nostalgic old horror, monster and sci fi comics. The artwork always seemed so spectacular. Even looking at the two examples you've given us, the danger just leaps out of the paper. I guess for me, it's the old cliche of a picture painting a thousand words. It's really nice to see these things on the blog.
