Where Monsters Prowl
Is it possible that today’s story title was the partial inspiration for one of Marvel’s later silver age reprint series of the sort of same name? Whatever… you can happily rest assured that wherever prowling monsters and creatures on the loose do dwell, somewhere else out there H. P. Lovecraft’s shambling corpse is probably smiling a little bit too.

Love the cover. Looks like something "ghastly" would have drawn.
ReplyDeleteWELL NOW WE ALL KNOW WHAT TENTACLED MUPPET MONSTERS WOULD LOOK LIKE IF THEY INVADED OUR PLANET! I LIKED THIS STORY BUT SERIOUSLY COULDNT THESE ALIENS HAVE BEEN DRAWN A LITTLE MORE SCARY THAN THIS?
ReplyDeleteWhere the aliens successful? It appears they did not get the reporter.

ReplyDeleteYes, if Bill Everett was the artist.
They could have skipped a step and just taken over George F. Will...plus, no one would have ever discovered it.
ReplyDeletecool this does have a lovecraft vibe, I guess its the tentacles...
