We're still screaming for our mommies with the release of my new book this week, 
MUMMIES, 
(IDW / Yoe Books) available everywhere 
NOW, or order a couple online 
HERE (and FYI: I have a few extras to spare as well if anyone wants to order one directly from me just send an email) --but seriously, what better way to celebrate the holidays this year than with the colorfully wrapped gift of wrapped, reeking corpses! Now while neither of today's classics made the final edit of the book, both are still pretty great in their own evil ways, starting off with 
Bob Forgione's strangely sexy 
"The Priestess of Baal" from the Oct '52 issue of 
Weird Horror's #3, and followed by an encore presentation of 
"The Sinister Return of the Priestess of Baal" (no relation to the 
Forgione story) from the Nov '52 issue of 
Baffling Mysteries #11, art by 
Chic Stone. I've also spiced up this post with pix of 
Lana Turner as the Priestess of Baal from MGM's 1955 film epic, 
The Prodigal!
