American Update: Pre-Code Horror Fest – as easy as ABC: Adventures Into Darkness, Baffling Mysteries and the Clutching Hand
*Horror 1940-1959: Standard’s Adventures Into Darkness provided high-quality work from a number of acclaimed artists, including Sekowsky, Katz and Alex Toth, the latter of whom graces this very issue, #5, behind an evocative Jack Katz cover; Ace’s Baffling Mysteries offers striking Lou Cameron artwork and, in #20, a classic bondage cover; and from ACG, we offer 1954’s first (and only) issue of the Clutching Hand, a rare one-shotof one of the less subtle titles of the period! Pictured are Adventures Into Darkness #5 GD+ £77, Baffling Mysteries #20 FA £25 and Clutching Hand #1 FA £30. See our online listings for further details, including Baffling Mysteries #21 in addition. SORRY, PICTURED ITEMS NOW SOLD
