Excellent collection of short horror and supernatural stories that could very easily be part of the "Twilight Zone" TV show.
Stories are short (but to the point) and varied, you have everything from ghouls and vampires to greedy people, lunatics and murderers.

Art is great, I was especially thrilled to see works of Al Williamson - his work is very reminiscent of Alex Raymond. it is wonderful to see true masters (though not maybe fully established when magazine was started) working on black and white panels and accomplishing a lot with shadings and playing around with the light effects.

Highly recommended for all fans of truly beautiful comic art and very interesting short horror stories.… (plus d'informations)
