The Vampire's Fate
I was saving this tale for a mind boggling, bare-chested, underwear clad-only bloodsucker theme for a potential month of posts, but then thought THOIA might too closely resemble a superhero blog with all that exposed, ripped, male flesh (ripped in a bad way) so meh, here ya go... from the April-May 1952 issue of Out of the Night #2.

Strange...a towering mansion surrounded by a moat...within walking distance of my house...how did I miss seeing THAT.
ReplyDeleteI see the sub-mariner was moonlighting!
ReplyDeleteThese vampire ones are fun because so many of them rely on "figure out the logic to beat the vampire", so there's always some bizarre yet convenient logic to be had, and you never know what kind of vampires you'll get. Stakes? Garlic? No, I have to bite another vampire! No, I have to be forced to fish at exactly 3:33 am on a Thursday!
I have at least once popped for the Criterion edition of a movie that had slipt into the public domain, exactly because the Criterion editions are so well produced.
ReplyDeleteI swear I've read this story with different art in a Skywald Publication.
ReplyDeleteWho taught this vampire how to talk, anyways? Dr. Seuss?
Haha, ummm... thanks for the comments. Last story from this ish coming up next.
