    Dismemberment and hypo blood draining stories

    Stories and art by A.C. Hollingsworth, Jon DAgostino, and Harry Harrison. A pre-Code horror series that is not as well-known other horror comics, but makes up for it with grue. Dr. Parker's scheme to turn plants into humans only succeeds in giving plants a taste for human blood. A governor who refused to pardon an innocent man is haunted by a deadly disembodied hand that only he can see. An insanely jealous astronomer with failing eyesight murders his partner and harvests his eyes (haven't seen that one before). The Terror of the Killer Plant; The Hand of Death!; Strange Curse of the Mountain; The Eyes of Death!; Adventure in Death. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10. Grade: CGC 3.5 explanation of grade Condition: Used (collectible)
