This title continued from Fantastic which had 2 issues numbered 8 & 9. Prior to that it was a science fiction title called Captain Science which lasted 7 issues (#1-7). As Fantastic the title changed from science fiction to horror/suspense. Beware was horror/suspense from the start. |

An excellent issue, all stories are very good including one of the better adaptations of The Pit and the Pendulum I've read. Very intense, you could feel his terror. Includes a 2 page text story not listed below. |
