How's Bayou?". That was published in Jan/Feb of 53, and thinking about lead times, that puts it right where this story was published, a couple months later in August.<br /><br />Page 5, panel 3 is wonderful, really kinetic, but this story suffers from it's comparison to the EC tale. The pacing is a bit strange. Still, it's a fun read!<br /><br />The splash is also a great bit of pre-code art, the way the objects are placed to show just enough gore but not outright.Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-73438697808436749682012-05-30T22:53:35.476-05:002012-05-30T22:53:35.476-05:00Yes, I was thinking about "Horror We, How'...Yes, I was thinking about "Horror We, How's Bayou?" even before I read the comments.

At a time when real-life horrors are taking place this week from some naked guy eating another's face whilst being shot over and over in Miami to some guy Stabbing himself and throwing pieces Of skin And intestines at police in New Jersey, this seems tame by comparison.<br />I was just visiting Pappy's Golden Age Comics Blogzine and he certainly has high praise for you and your book- best of luck with it!Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17780519140837852601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-20048851512002752342012-05-30T07:40:13.266-05:002012-05-30T07:40:13.266-05:00I wonder if this comic stole its big twist from th...I wonder if this comic stole its big twist from the famous Ghastly Ingels story "Horror We?
