lengthy introduction...a nice job...hitting on some of the very insignificant magazines --Mani.com; a vein worth mining --Scarlet; in depth...both an affectionate look back, and a scholarly study, of a period in horror history --Scary Monsters Magazine; includes all of the Marvel B&W mags --Famousmonsters of filmland.com.
