Mother Hubbard

If you're a fan of eye injury panels, and ogres with a taste for baby flesh, then today you've come to the right place! This seriously bonkers Bill Madden tale was originally featured in the March 1942 issue of Scoop Comics #3, reprinted a few years later in Spotlight Comics (same publisher), and once more in the 80's by Eclipse Comics. Yes, it's seriously goofy, but man, it's still full of horrific moments that easily rival any of the other more notorious titles of the precode era.

Dr. Paul Barer

From the same Spook Comics issue as The Obi Makes Jumbee comes this kooky Dr. Paul Barer bonus story in what amounts to his one and only comic book appearance ever (unless someone knows otherwise.) It’s a creepy cute, Caligari-esque bit ‘o fun filler, and just oddball enough for inclusion here at THOIA.
From the 1946 Baily Publishing Company one-shot issue of Spook Comics #1
