HOUSE OF HAMMER - the best horror mag ever for me. It was the first time I'd read full reviews of films I'd only heard about ( and many that I hadn't! )

The Hammer comic strips were wonderful ( often based on the original shooting script ). And those Brian Lewis covers were works of art. :)

House of Hammer
 

Yeah I think it was first mag I remember buying,the covers allways bring back memories,especially this one.

I remember being quite shocked when I saw that issue, as it was the first ( and only ) not to feature original artwork!

So many to choose from, but these are two of my favourites:

Attachment 67448Attachment 67449

I used to love these! Anyone else remember them?

Horror Comics

The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires is a great cover,i read the comic years before i got to see the film.

CRIME SUSPENSTORIES
 

EC Comics Crime SuspenStories has some amazing lurid covers.
http://www.cult-labs.com/forums/atta...0&d=1338792677

Presumably the Comics Code Authority and/or the 1954 Congressional subcommittee hearings prevented blood being depicted as being red in these magazines?

Vault of Horror #32
 

Yeah they pretty much had to play it safe afterwards,I know Vault of Horror #32 cover was changed,meat clever had to be removed for the intial print,but original artwork was used by Gladstone for there repints.

The short lived British comic Scream which ran for a measily fifteen issues.

scream
 

Yeah if I remember correctly was'nt it printed on newspaper type paper,I think the old 2000 AD was as well back then,happy days :)

The mighty Vampirella.

It certainly was. Many comics were back then, Hulk, Battle etc.

I had every issue of Scream, but sadly no more.

Vampirella
 

Was'nt Hammer toying with filming this,Caroline Munro would of been a cert for that part back in the day.hubba hubba :lol:

Yes, but with Barbara Leigh.

Barbara Leigh
 

Ok interesting,I think Munro would of been better

I recently picked up this book. 216 pages of full page Vampirella cover art.

It was actually released DTV in 1996. Written by Forry Ackerman, it starred Talisa Soto and Roger Daltrey.
