Trophies of Doom

Feel like you got enough DOOM yesterday? No? Well then maybe a little more DOOM to finish off our work week is just what the executioner ordered. Plus some “Thank God it’s Friday” decapitations…

From the September 1953 issue of Adventures into Darkness #11

>COULD BE A LITTLE MORE BLOODY

There is a certain level of creepiness to these headless / bloodless corpses though too. I remember as a kid being terrified by the mannequins at the mall that had no heads, just that disturbing smooth tapered neck. That's what these characters remind me of.

Yeah, they could even play catch with his drunken severed head some more.
