I really like 'The Monster club', i think the jokey tone gives it it's own vibe and separates it from other anthology's of the time.
Only the 2nd story is actually lighthearted itself.
The Shadmock story i always remembered the most as a kid, (used to watch it every time it showed up on T.V so it's a nostalgia thing too) think it was the fried cat that stuck in my head.
I even like the songs, so i must be a no hoper really.
Being an arty type kid i always liked the monster hierarchy illustration too.
