DESIGN OF THE WEEK REDUX "Tales of Horror #9"

Each week, we post a limited-edition design, to be sold for exactly 7 days, then replaced with another, unless it sells really well, then we keep it for one more week.

Once more, it's the vintage comic book cover from Toby/Minoan's Tales of Horror #9, worn in the new movie The DUFF by Mae Whitman as nerd-girl Bianca..

Note that this is a cleaned-up, digitally-remastered rendition of the cover, not the"homemade look" version seen in the movie that can be achieved with a color copier and laser/inkjet printer on heat-transfer paper.

Available on mugs, blankets, t-shirts, and many other goodies
Note: We presented the never-reprinted comic book story the cover is based on HERE.

Reading Room TALES OF HORROR "It Came from the Bottom of the World"

A new movie, The DUFF, is opening on Friday...

...and one of the stars of the flick. Mae Whitman as Bianca, wears a shirt with a classic 1950s horror comic on it!

Art by Jack Sparling

Here's the story behind the cover...

This never-reprinted tale from Toby/Minoan's Tales of Horror #9 (1954) was illustrated by longtime journeyman artist Jack Sparling.

The writer is unknown.

Now, here's a kool treat:

While it's not the t-shirt seen in the movie (which has a home-made "look" that can be achieved with a color laser or inkjet printer and heat-transfer paper), we took our copy of the comic, scanned and digitally-remastered the cover, then put it on an assortment of kool kollectibles including this large tote bag...

..plus phone and e-reader cases, pajamas, magnets, and, of course, t-shirts, all at inexpensive prices.

(The t-shirts start at $14.95)
