Happy Thanksgiving! I bet most of you were expecting a food related horror story here today, possibly about some greedy, fat, obnoxious glutton who gets his just desserts in the end by being eaten alive or something else typically pre code. But no, for once here’s a post that has absolutely nothing relatable to the holiday it so happens to fall upon. Instead just indulge your appetite with a weird tale of terror!
From the March 1953 issue of Adventures Into Weird Worlds #16
A lesson in applied existentialism.
ReplyDeleteFUN LITTLE STORY. BUT THIS SEEMS MORE LIKE THE KIND OF THING ATLAS WOULD DO AFTER THE CODE CAME ALONG.
ReplyDeleteYep,seems less like a pre-code story and more like THE TERROR OF TIM BOO BA! or somenthing Ditko would do in the 60's,but it at least has a Thanksgiving theme;give thanks that some stuffy englishman doesn't decide we don't exist and destroy us all!eee!.
ReplyDeleteAnother important lesson to learn from this one--- don't overthink things!
ReplyDeletethought provoking and funny!
