Zombie! + RECOMMENDED BLOG

I just noticed that Mr. Door Tree posted Stan Lee and Bill Everett's awesome story ZOMBIE! (from the July 1953 issue of Menace #5) in it's entirety on Monday. So for a bonus tale of pre-code horror today I recommend you head on over to his great Golden Age Comic Book Stories blog by clicking HERE (scroll down a bit once you're there), it's a truly excellent post from one of the absolute best blogs on the web! Bookmark it, updates daily...
