Haunted Love Volume 1


Book Description

Haunted Love is the unholy spawn of "Haunted Horror" and "Weird Love" Read the screams of terror from these creepy critics: "'Haunted Love' is an essential collection for any comic horror fan. This is horror with a heart--a beating, bloody one at that--with clear homages to the narrative construction of American horror literature, particularly H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, in the tales of sinister romance. "'Haunted Love' is a fun, dark, and devilish exploration of love within horror--a fascinating look at the social and cultural representations of 1950s America through the uncensored medium of comics." --Big Comic Page "This is the stuff that made people burn comics in the '50s. This is the good stuff " --Comic Wow




Four Color Fear


Book Description

A massive collection of never-before-collected pre-Comics Code horror comics of the 1950s. Of the myriad genres comic books ventured into during its golden age, none was as controversial as or came at a greater cost than horror; the public outrage it incited almost destroyed the entire industry. Yet before the watchdog groups and Congress could intercede, horror books were flying off the newsstands. During its peak period (1951–54) over fifty titles appeared each month. Apparently there was something perversely irresistible about these graphic excursions into our dark side, and Four Color Fear collects the finest of these into a single robust volume.
