The lead off story, Isle of the Demons, will have you in stitches, assuming they can find all the pieces. If that weren’t nauseatingly enough for you, Evil Monsters will bring you past dripping, oozing labyrinths of slime, past plopping whirlpools of filth (whew!). Mere mortals had a tough time in horror comics, that’s for certain. In Death Strikes Four, the amount of narrative and dialog text (a staple of early horror comics), just may kill you before the clock strikes, but the art is fabulous as you wait. And talk about chasing time, that clock has long hands and a homicidal temperament. This is one of my favorites! Oh, and there’s a detective who tries to Bury Her Deep, but she keeps bobbing up with the tide, and a hangman at the end of his rope, and a witch who…well, you know, it’s all there in gory black and white. Enjoy.

An interesting escape into the wrong body, Satan dances into mischief, a burning desire flames up, people are doomed, scientists screw up, and the art is to die for (which apparently many people do in horror comics). Enjoy.
