Cursing Skulls!

Got a nifty back-up feature from the June-July 1953 issue of Frankenstein #25 today... it seems kind of obvious, but does anyone wanna take a stab at who worked on this one? I also want to apologize about the gutter on a few of the pages, this issue is badly stapled and this was the best I could do with the scan/editing.

  2. One wonders if the folks at Hanna Barbara had the first page of this story taped up somewhere -- it's basically the Scooby-Doo plot line: Dress up as monster, scare people off land!

  4. This one could be re-titled "Dinner at Douchebag Manor." Lord and Lady Hawley were served their just desserts indeed.

  5. Not very typical of his style, but at some places it is and Prize is a compny he worked for a lo, so I'd say this is by Marvin Stein.

    Is there any other kind?

    Let's not give HB all the credit for that awesome plot line, in fact, I was just watching the Three Stooges get spooked the other night in this fashion.

    >Why couldn't prince valiant be like this?

    Indeed, haha!

    >This one could be re-titled "Dinner at Douchebag Manor."

    Much more descriptive, Lil... though possibly a bit too heavy on the vinegar.

    >I'd say this is by Marvin Stein.

    Thanks Ger! As usual, I'd say you were right. Thank you!
