Countdown to Halloween 2019 begins Tuesday!

We're pleased to be included in the...

...Countdown to Halloween 2019 Blogathon.

Starting October 1st, we'll be posting stuff once a week on five different RetroBlogs, so there'll be daily posts from us Monday thru Friday!

Monday

Secret Sanctum of Captain Video kicks off the week with adaptations of two of American International's 1960s "Edgar Allan Poe" flicks...

The Raven, starring Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre, and Jack Nicholson!

War-Gods of the Deep, which is actually an original sci-fi screenplay set in the early 1900s, making it a "steampunk before it was steampunk" flick!

Tuesday

Seduction of the Innocent continues the horror with the psychedelic adventures of the British Victorian-era monster-fighter Sir Leo...

...yeah, it's as weird and off-beat as it sounds!
BTW, there are several never-seen-in-the-US tales in this batch, so there's another good reason not to miss this one!

Wednesday

True Love Comics Tales offers our annual collection of sci-fi, fantasy and horror...

...all with romance as the central plot!

Thursday
Hero Histories covers the first few, never-reprinted appearances of plainclothes monster-fighter Werewolf Hunter...

...who had a surprisingly-long run in the back of Fiction House's military-oriented Rangers Comics!

Friday

We end the week with the comic book adventures of real-life magician and debunker Dr William (Bill) Neff in Horror Comics of the 1950s!

The series has links to the pulp-radio-comic character The Shadow, since creator Walter Gibson (aka Maxwell Grant) wrote all the stories and Bob Powell, who illustrated a number of The Shadow's pulp and comic book tales during the Golden Age also drew Neff's adventures!

Plus, here at Atomic Kommie Comics, our three ongoing features will be horror-themed!

Monday Madness posts will be the never-seen-in-America Dracula humor strips from the original Spanish-language Dracula comic from 1971!

Note: the 12-issue magazine series was translated and reprinted in England, then the first 6 issues were packaged as a trade paperback by Warren (Creepy/Eerie/Vampirella) Publications!

But neither English-language version ran these one-pagers despite the fact the strip is wordless!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder will peek into the apocalyptic future of...The Walking Dead!

No, not that Walking Dead!

This one...

Yes, gang, we're returning to the never-reprinted original Walking Dead, from 30 years ago, over a decade before the one the TV show is based on!

And our Friday Fun posts will be covers and pages from the never-reprinted humor magazines Monsters to Laugh With / Monsters Unlimited and Monster Madness, featuring scripting/captioning by the late, great Stan Lee!
