Reading Room NIGHT OF MYSTERY "Giant from Earth!"

Though this never-reprinted tale appeared in a one-shot horror anthology comic...

...it's really a straight sci-fi tale with no horror elements!

I can't be certain, but it looks like the artists for this tale from Avon's Night of Mystery (1953) are Mike Sekowsky (pencils) and Frank Giacoia or Bernard Sachs (inks).

Reading Room: ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN Spirit of Frankenstein "A Monster is Born"

There have been several ongoing series that combined horror and sci-fi...

...such as the strip which premiered with this tale from ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #5 (1949)!

The "monster" here is not Frankenstein's Monster, nor are any of the scientists members of the Frankenstein clan.

Writer Richard Hughes and artist Charles Sultan invoked the "spirit" of the Frankenstein Monster concept with a creation run amok and ran amuck with it for several issues from #5 to #16!

We'll be presenting them all during October, so bookmark us and check back frequently (we post daily)!

Reading Room: LOST WORLDS "Alice in Terrorland"

To begin our October celebration of scary stuff...

...here's a comic story that combines sci-fi, a classic fantasy, and a fear many children experience at one time or another...

Penciled by Alex Toth and inked by Mike Peppe, this tale from Standard's Lost Worlds #5 (1952) takes the common kids' fear of toys coming to life and adds imagery from Lewis Carroll's Alice tales to an alien invasion scenario to create a wonderfully-creepy story.
Sadly, the writer of this wild story is unknown.
There's more scary sci-fi fun here all through October, so bookmark us and visit often!

GoodBye, USA Today!

Yesterday I bought my last edition of...

...when I discovered the price had doubled from a barely-acceptable $1 to $2!

I had been a faithful reader from the beginning (September 15, 1982), and while it was just fast-food journalism, it was entertaining, and a comforting constant no matter where I traveled.

But the party's over.

Since our office is close to several hotels, I'll just cop a copy off the piles left behind in the lobbies and coffee shops.

They're already paid-for by the hotel, so it's not "piracy".
