The Voluptuous Horror of Mark Reznicek @realmarkrez.bsky.social · 20h

Horror Tales vol. 9 no. 3 (Aug 1978). Cover Art by Luke. The weird world of Myron Fass’s Eerie Publications, lurid covers with a mixed bag of interior art and stories, some new, some refurbished pre-code reprints. There’s decent art and half-ass art, but all enthusiastically gory.

A hideously deformed monster carries a lifeless woman while a group of torch bearing men follow behind.

Nick Cardy cover, From Beyond The Unknown 24 (Oct 1973).

As an artist draws a monster on a comic book page, that same monster is flying in his window! The artist says “Wow! Not even I believe a monster like this could ever exist!”

Cover by L.B. Cole.

Startling Terror Tales #10 (1952). On the cover, a creature resembling Mr. Hyde but with a green face is holding a woman by her hair, and looks like he is about to either hit her with a thin club or stake her in the chest.

HORROR HOTEL
Original 1962 one-sheet poster.
I’ve been wanting one of this for some time now and finally got one just in time for Halloween! 🎃
Look at that genuinely creepy artwork from one of the best to ever do it: JACK DAVIS! 😍

Original poster showing the heads of several undead (zombies?) staring down at the viewer - it’s legit creepy!

I remember being blown away by this art when it first appeared.

I've got a lot of Silver Age Marvel and DC comics listed in my little store on eBay. If you like old comic books......

Yeah, I found some of the lettering to be pretty distracting.

Every comic cover since has been trying and failing to reach the heights glimpsed by this Carmine Infantino cover for Flash #133 in 1962. You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like

Flash being turned into a puppet while thinking "I've got the strangest feeling I'm being turned into a PUPPET!". FUN FACT: it is impossible to see this cover and not want to see more

Yeah the full treasury sized facsimile is in shops this week. I know what you mean about Sparling, but at least in this book, his work looks pretty good.
