Vampires!




















The scariest part of all this is I almost added a picture of Count Chocula, but I dinnae find an image I liked

 

Buyer's Guide #15 Cover by Dennis Fujitake

Okay, no hesitation, withoutadoubt, this has been up before!  Onea my fav posts (and, as we approach 2 milliuon views, onea yours) is The Buyer's Guide For Comic Fandom, which includes this among many, many others from the great initial mailings in the early 70s.  This image is, however, bigger, faster, stronger, and just che cool

Things are goin swimmingly, just like all the reports, but this one sports a great Conan sketch

Burroughs Bulletin #100 Cover by Mike Kaluta

Wow, this is che sweet.  Four years ago, I posted Mastermind Of Mars by Michael Whelan, Roy Krenkel, and Frank Frazetta, and meamwayne commented there was a version by Kaluta, and I dunnae recall even look'n it up.  Shame on me!  Now, all we need is an interpretation by Wrightson, Kirby, Barry Smith, Steranko, and Gil Kane, and I'll be all set

 

Pimp My Ride by Jack Kirby

So, The Watcher dinnae need a buncha weapons and antennae bristl'n out of his ride (those Kirby vehicles are che cool also, though),  but he has a far-out windshield, the best steering wheel I've ever seen, and just an amaz'n manifold.  Bet his 0 to 60 is unmeasureable with our primitive time keep'n

Conan Mystery Part Deux by Barry Smith



So, in the way back, I said this great Conan panel appeared in Orpheus #1, a British fanzine, but no one seemed to know what Conan comic it was intended for.  I still speculate Conan #10.  Orpheus dinnae say anything about the image, it just accompanied an article on Robert E.
