Monster of the Day #3431

Hmm, running low on bugs. Hey, this one’s about “Spider-Men.”

Someday all this political correctness junk will recede and somebody will make a show based on these old pulp stories. How much fun would that be?

Watch Party tomorrow! Santa–well, a jolly fat man anyway–is bringing presents early.

Quality of presents on guaranteed.

  • Beckoning Chasm

    The shift in background color makes it look like he’s standing in front of a giant magazine cover.

    With those pants is he a time-transposed US cavalry rider from the late 1800’s?

    Looks like a 19th century guy with a little retouch. His left hand looks like he had a knife or saber at one time.

    Darn, will be missing the watch party. Going to visit the old man and the not so evil step-mother.

  • Ken_Begg

    Well, Merry Christmas to you and them!

  • Eric Hinkle

    I’ve read a few reprinted issues of this pulp and man are they ever fun. It’s also interesting to see some of the names of the ‘new’ writers in it, like Poul Anderson, and see where they started out.

    Oh noooosssss, it’s the Hodag!!!

    I’m assuming the cover illustrates ‘The Spider-men of Gharr’ since that looks like a Spider-man in the background. But the lady could be ‘The Red Witch of Mercery’ too.

    and to all of you
