Worthy of note: A letter from Ron Haydock, comics pro, rockabilly singer, and editor of at least one movie monster magazine, taking them to task.
In general, I like this period of AITU. It may be one of the few comics that was actually improved by the Comics Code, pushing them away from the creaky old vampires and werewolves stories and towards quirkier fantasies.
