I read this story many a year ago and it never left my memory although I could not remember in which horror comic it came from. <br />I've spent the past several years looking through all issues of Creepy and Eerie and even Skywald's stuff like Psycho but to no avail. NOW I finally know the magazine it came from!!!!

Stine pieces, but indeed these are "Bob" Stine and his wife Jane--and you're also right that Bissette makes them much more awesome than they ought to be. Bissette's work really is beautiful.<BR/><BR/>But Stine... somebody exposed me to one of his "adult" novels, something about a leprechaun, I think; there was a sex scene that was Bulwer-Lytton-award-worthy, so godawfully written that you could pee yourself laughing. Imagine softcore porn written in English aimed at a third-grader and maybe you get the idea.<BR/><BR/>Karswell: thank you for sharing these, though. Whatever is lacking in the writing, the artwork is <I>gorgeous</I>. Good call on these (again).Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275812152895151542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-2493265153832066312009-03-30T23:56:00.000-05:002009-03-30T23:56:00.000-05:00>I first discovered the works of H.P.

Weird Worlds turned me onto a lot of non-mainstream stuff of the time. It's kind of odd too how just searching for anything about this mag series online turns up practically nothing, unless you really dig around deep.<BR/><BR/>So okay, we wrap up March with a nice tale tomorrow from Ace, and yes, a lil more info on the state of all things THOIA in April. It's not all bad though... thanks again everyone.

I wish I had come across those Weird Worlds back in the '70s; instead, we only had Dynamite (or something like that).<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the excellent blog, Karswell.
