Wow it won't be long now till I can feel it puncturing my atria, opening a route my pressurized blood can take back into the pericardial sac and sqeezing my heart shut from the outside. I wish I could cry out, but my left lung is quickly collapsing, the resultant pneumothorax crushing the gasses out of my right aveoli in a protracted and rather comical burp. I guess the end is coming in just a few more panels now...."Mr. Cavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634994342702518448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-42968322638886683952015-01-10T11:30:25.695-06:002015-01-10T11:30:25.695-06:00It's funny that the characters have names like...It's funny that the characters have names like Finnegan and Joyce, and I don't mean because of "Finnegan's Wake" by James Joyce (in fact, that only occurred to me seconds ago). Since the story is about golf, and since the names are in that Celtic country direction, you'd almost think they'd be Scottish names instead.<br /><br />The setting of this story immediately made me think of that notorious E.C. story (I can't think of its name) about baseball players, the one that was evidently a kind of breaking point for the anti-horror comic groups. The funny thing is, I don't think I've ever actually read it, but it feels as if I have because of all the references to it.<br /><br />I definitely agree with Brian Barnes about the "discount Betty Page." At the very least, a larger picture of her would've been in order.<br />Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603892208775996594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-31316412308539353062015-01-09T20:39:03.429-06:002015-01-09T20:39:03.429-06:00I will be sending out invites to the Atlas Secret ...I will be sending out invites to the Atlas Secret Society (email only) club over the next few months... if you are a friend to this blog, meaning, you currently contribute in positive ways with comments, suggestions or donations, then you will be included.

The ending was a little predictable, but I always love a story where somebody holds a gun on a scientist and forces the scientist to experiment on him. That can never go well! <br /><br />As for this story, it was a better story than I expected going in. A good twist at the end.

It's played mostly for laughs but it's still kind of creepy too.<br /><br />Ok, one tale left from this issue coming up next... and you guys on the Atlas email list are gonna love the next few updates, spine chillers from Spellbound and Astonishing!Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-23736352016626308032015-01-08T15:08:48.668-06:002015-01-08T15:08:48.668-06:00One you might think are going to be absolutely sil...One you might think are going to be absolutely silly turn out to be good! This is a fun little tale with a lot of turn-a-bout in it, and a relatively creepy ending where our hero becomes the next insane murderer.<br /><br />Good art all around, the twister face of the brother (OK, the golf ball wound is goofy), the ugly groundskeeper, etc.<br /><br />There's a bit of Manos in this! Torgo like guy, his master, and finally our hero becoming the new Torgo, with thankfully less golf!<br /><br />Why'd that have to kill the discount Betty Page?<br /><br />The colorist seemed to have given up half way through this one. Still, a great tale, but not quite as good as the Atlas ones you sent me in the mail today!
