Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
This veinchilling second volume showcases work by some of the best artists to ever work in the comics medium, including Alex Toth, Gray Morrow, Reed Crandall, John Severin, and others. Each archive volume of
Creepy is packed with stories (usually up to eight short stories were featured in every issue ) running the gamut of gruesome subject matter, from reimagined horror classics such as
The Cask of Amontillado, to spectacularly mindtwisting shorts such as
The Thing in the Pit, or the macabre maritime yarn
Drink Deep.
* This volume collects Creepy #610.
"Since the stock is much finer than the authentic newsprint, visually, these pages are better than the originals, with moodly, dark blacks that punctuate the shock endings." Publishers Weekly
