The Obi Makes Jumbee

Here’s a strangely appealing zombie crime tale that looks like nothing else I’ve ever posted on this blog. In fact, if anything it reminds me more of a fun old 1940’s RKO film like Zombies on Broadway (’45) or You’ll Find Out (’40), only in color. Interesting art from Robert Baldwin, does anyone have any info on him? I admire his clean, precision mix of stylized cartooniness and exotic cheesecake. A great story too with a clever “reverse voodoo” angle… wish I had more from this guy.

From the 1946 Baily Publishing Company one-shot issue of Spook Comics #1
