Cracked’s For Monsters Only
Issue 7, April 1969

/ Magazine Morgue / Leave a Comment

Richard Bojarski comes to the rescue again in issue 7 of Cracked's For Monsters Only with Peter Cushing: Monster Fighter and Karloff and Lugosi: The Titans of Terror. Otherwise, it's the usual filler comprised of ad pages, humor pages (which are actually quite funny this time around), and a 16-page comic, The Secret Files of Marc Vangoro, Master of Horror (he appears in another adventure in CFMO No. 8.)

Weird Vol. 9, No. 2
June 1976

/ Magazine Morgue / Leave a Comment

With a cover that's a zoomed in portion of the cover from Tales From the Tomb, May 1974, this issue of Weird, which picks up 15 months after the original magazine's run, "ain't nuthin' but a bunch of reprints. Evidently the kid who picked the stories was a fan of Macagno and Mandrafina, as their artwork takes up over half of the magazine." (from The Weird Indexes of Eerie Publications by Mike Howlett) But, hey, these stories are still chilling when read in the dead of night.
