Lost Souls-Myron Fass-1954


Here we have "Insane" Myron Fass, the man who would later bring you the "SPLIT!" version of Captain Marvel among a number of other cheesy products. Rather a MAD type of horror tale here.

Murder By Myth-Strange Terrors-1952


No idea the artist here but he seems to have studied the work of Will Eisner and Lou Fine fairly extensively. A lovely nightmarish splash highlights this tale of Medusa in modern day.

The Devil's Arm Chair-Mike Sekowsky-1962


Here we have an absolutely marvelous THRILLER tale from JLA signature artist Mike Sekowsky. His sometimes quirky or even controversial stye works perfectly here with Gold Key's odd borderless panels of the period. The story is slight but the art is lovely.

The Little Monsters-The Terrorsaurus-1966


I have never even heard speculation as to who did this fairly long-running Gold-Key series from the sixties. Even now, on the 'Net, no one seems to want to guess. Whoever it was, though, writer and/or artist, was  quite clever and funny as far as these types of strips go. So whoever you are/were...thanks!

The Demon Coat-John Forte(?)-1954



GCD speculates that this creepy tale from WEB OF EVIL is by future Bizarro World artist John Forte. I'm not certain that they're correct but that doesn't affect its creepiness.

Twilight Zone/Phantom Lighthouse-Reed Crandall-1961



The great Reed Crandall did a few of the early TWILIGHT ZONE comics including this story back when it was still FOUR-COLOR feature.

Bride of Doom-Jay Disbrow-1952


I like this one because of its"punchline" which reads almost like a very quirky TV commercial for instant cameras! Some typically unique artwork from Jayson Disbrow.
