Monster of the Day

Sorry to bug out the rest of last week, but I got back and was too busy with catching up at work and other stuff. Had a typically great time at T-Fest, which went very well indeed. I'm sure the Rev. is turning his voluminous pages of notes into a diary. Thanks as always…

Although Uncle Creepy and Cousin Eerie made but rare appearances on their covers--the pics from the last two days might well be the only ones--Vampirella for some reason(s) appeared on quite a few. I have no solution for this perplexing mystery. On the other hand...Frazatta. That can't hurt.

  Here's a shocker. The early issues of Creepy and Eerie, the ones edited and nearly entirely written by Archie Goodwin (no, not that Archie Goodwin--I think), are still amazingly fab. I urge anyone to go to their libraries and request the super-nifty Dark Horse hardcover reprint books of those, of which I own…

An appalling, monstrous abomination of nature. But useful when you've lost your keys.

Boy, you never find out until after the wedding! Am I right, gentlemen? Worse, she immediately put on like 20 pounds.
