Dez Skinn’s Quality Comics published a hardback book collection of Van Helsing’s Terror Tales from House Of Hammer magazine recently, which I have. So if it’s anything like that collection ( and I’ve no reason to think it won’t be ) then it’ll be terrific. Got my copy ordered!

Sorry Dem, I got the info from CHFB and that's all there was. I tried to do an online search but came up with nothing. I guess since its all the HoH Hammer film adaptations that's basically what you get - 300+ pages of comic strip from some of the leading Brit artists of the 70s. Looks a good quality hardback but I'm not sure I can justify the cost despite the nostalgia value.

As an aside, my 8 year old self wrote to HoH requesting that they adapt One Million Years B.C. and it appeared a few issues later. Letter was published as well. Not sure I'd want to read it again... probably die of embarrassment.

I've got all the issues on CD Rom and some loose mags. I'll see if I can find your letter.
I would have had a think about the book if it was every issue but if it is just the movie stories then no way for £50!
Not much info on this book is there? Just a picture and details of where to send the money.

The hardback edition has sold out, but you can get the paperback edition from Hemlock Books.
