Tales Twice-Told WITCHES TALES "Thing That Screamed!"

Once More, We Present the Re-Drawn  Version of a "Tale Twice-Told" First...

...because it is a total re-visualization of the original story!





In fact, this version from Eerie Publications' Witches Tales V6N6 (1974) by Alberto Macagno is so visually-different, it's a full page longer, even though the script hasn't been altered!
But the pacing and the emphasis on gore are quite different...as you'll see on Thursday!

Reading Room/Tales Twice Told TALES FROM THE TOMB "Living Corpse"

Now Witness How Another Artist Re-Interpreted It for a Cover-Featured Tale...and Needed an Extra Page to Do So!
This new version of the Simon & Kirby Black Magic story appeared in Eerie's Tales from the Tomb V6N5 (1974), illustrated by Alberto Macagno.
What's odd is that most of the reworked versions that appeared in Eerie Publications' b/w magazines (which weren't restricted by the Comics Code Authority) were gorier than the originals.
Yet this tale would've easily passed the looser Code, then in effect, which allowed "traditional/classic" monsters (Frankenstein, Dracula (and other vampires), werewolves, mummies)...without too much blood!
Heck, Marvel had just released their own Living Mummy series in Supernatural Thrillers!
