Swamp Monster!


Not only does the comic Weird Mysteries #5 have one of the creepiest covers ever, it has Swamp Monster by Basil Wolverton inside of it. You can read it below.

But first, since Halloween is near, I thought it would be fun to turn a panel of it into shirts and such! Click here to take a look at my TeePublic store!



And now, on with our story! Originally published in June, 1953. Click to enlarge each.







Okay, even though I shutter to do it, here's the cover--

Is it just me or the title of the comic is VERY similar to the Swamp Thing logo?

It does look like that.

I have been collecting comic books since the early 1980s. The friends of my older brothers would give me comics like this, old-school EC horror and anthology comics but I would either neglect them or throw them away, I was mainly into superhero comics. I wish I had the DeLorean so I can go back in time. I know I had comics that looked like this that might have some value.
