*Horror 1940-1959: Four Pre-Code Horror classics from diverse publishers this week – though two are not all they appear to be! Eerie Adventures #1 from Ziff-Davis, features a stunning Allen Anderson cover and artwork by Nostrand and, on the cover-blurbed ‘Vampires of Venus!’, Bob Powell; Exposed #1, from D.S., has the subhead ‘True Crime Cases’, but trust us, the content is as gory and violent as you could want! Feature Presentation #5, Fox’s ‘showcase’ title, features the book-length tale of ‘The Black Tarantula’, and is definitely not one for the arachnophobes! Last, but far from least, Standard’s Out of the Shadows #5 features striking artwork from Alex Toth, Ruben Moreira, Jerry Grandenetti and others. Eerie Adventures #1 is FA (centrefold loose, lower right cover corner missing, small piece out back cover) £65; Exposed #1 is FA (off bottom staple, long horizontal cover tear) £60; Feature Presentation #5 is VG £100 and Out of the Shadows #5 is VG+, remarkably crisp for its vintage, at £120.
