I can't say much about this one, the only redeeming quality being that the last comic in this issues is the only one that isn't total cheez-wiz; other than that all the other stories are junk & the coloring is probably the worst I've ever seen which is evident by page 2. Don't get me wrong, there is a nostalgic quality to some camp or error to these old comics that I love(what most people do who dig em') but in my opinion, this one was atrocious. |
|
Also, I wanted to note, the last story seemed very familiar to me? Maybe there was a version almost identical in one of the other horror comics. If anyone knows which one I mean, get a hold of me, I'd love to hear your opinions or if you know of a similar comic story. |

With the quality of the stories and all that Ditko artwork this book reads remarkably like a Charlton. Sorry, can't help you on the last story. |
|
Ditko is as good as ever, and as for the coloring, it's the scanning that is less than perfect, and that is easily corrected with any graphics software. |
