SPELLBOUND (DC Thomson, 1976): Brilliant mix of Gothic horror novels and My Guy. Featured comic strips (I want a Vampirene movie!), articles, and pop star's real-life ghost stories. Forever in the shadow of IPC's Misty, but a gem nonetheless.
Jack Kirby's 1976 Marvel Comics adaptation of 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY was just as mind-blowing as the film.
Day 14 of the Scarred for Life advent calendar, and it's @Usborne's seminal paranormal tome, a book so scary I daren't own a copy as a kid... THE USBORNE BOOK OF GHOSTS
(2/3) With artists including Marvel mainstays Herb 'Incredible Hulk' Trimpe and Earl Noren, the series saw a scientific experiment bring dinosaurs into the 1980s. Never mind the story, feel the brutality!
Daniel Farson's HAMLYN BOOK OF GHOSTS IN FACT AND FICTION (1978), the first in a quadrilogy of classic books about horror, mysteries and monsters, went all-out on the illustrated spookiness. At times it went way beyond even Usborne's fabled trilogy (that second picture!)...
@ginn_78 I can't recommend this book enough, Joe. A short story collection forming a sort of British Horror Cinematic Universe - and John Morlar is one of the main characters!
Plucked from an Ants gig by a mysterious hooded figure, Adam is The Chosen One, roaming the timelines, inhabiting his previous bodies, Quantum Leap-style, and generally saving the world.
You wouldn't get anything this exciting from George Ezra.
Nobody drew the living dead quite like Steve Bisette and John Totleben. Corrr!
Steve Bisette and John Totleben's beautifully grotesque artwork for Alan Moore's SWAMP THING, a cornerstone of 1980s horror.
