Written by Peter Normanton. Art by Various. Cover by Luis Dominguez. I, the Cryptologist, throw open my putrid sanctuary, as acclaimed illustrator Alex Ross regales us with the gory lowdown on his Universal Monsters paintings. Tim Leese and Hammer Time then take us face-to-face with that studios classic film Brides of Dracula. Mark Voger puts the horrors of 3-D movies of the 1950s into focus, and editor Peter Normanton literally brings that eras 3-D comic books to life with a mini-history, and complete 3-D story reprint! From there, we embark on a journey to discover the early origins of blood-curdling slasher movies, as a prelude to the macabre pre-Code artwork of Atlass Bill Everett and ACGs 3-D maestro Harry Lazarus. Another Killer B movie awaits (courtesy of Steve Kronenberg), as does cartoon creepiness by Pete Von Sholly. Its a crypt full of the macabre, prepared especially for retro horror fans! 80 pages, full color. Cover price $10.95.

(W) Peter Normanton (A) Bernie Wrightson (CA) Bernie Wrightson “This time no one gets out alive, for I, your very own Cryptologist, have unleashed the walking dead for the sixth issue of my putrescent tome! It’s a gathering of zombies, journeying back to the films White Zombie and I Walked With A Zombie, before venturing on into the zombie apocalypse of George Romero and Lucio Fulci’s foul imagining. We also stagger through zombies that ran amok in the comic books of the pre-Code years, Bernie Wrightson’s cadaverous creations, and the decomposing abominations that overwhelmed the horror comics of Brazil. The contribution made by the black stars of classic horror cinema is consummately explored, digging out a few more of this atrophied brethren. But I can see you want more—so we have The Plague of Zombies in our Hammertime section, Fantaco’s macabre interpretation of Night of the Living Dead and the chilling Revenant from France. This decrepitude will have you frothing at the mouth, and it’s available especially for retro horror fans, by Tim Leese, Mark Voger, Steve & Michael Kronenberg, and editor Peter Normanton!” Cover price $10.95.
