Reading Room WEIRD THRILLERS "Graveyard in the Antarctic"

The current cold wave reminded me of a recent TV mini-series about ill-fated Arctic explorers, The Terror! 
And here's a tiny true tale of frozen fear...from the back of Ziff-Davis' Weird Thrillers #4 (1952)!
Illustrated by Marvin Stein, it's purportedly based on a true story.
But I've been unable to verify it, as all of Levick's known studies were about penguins, not seals!

Each week, we post a limited-edition design, to be sold for exactly 7 days, then replaced with another...unless it sells really well, as this one is doing...so it'll run for one more week!
Celebrate the law-enforcement professional in your life with this retro-kool comic cover from the long-running GangBusters radio show.
Note: there was also a movie serial, TV series, plus two features re-edited from the TV show!
Trivia, the last season of the radio show was narrated by narrated by Norman Schwarzkopf, Sr., retired head of the New Jersey State Police and father of US Army General Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr.!
