Inside This Issue
A full-moon cover and a heavy heart. FM #49 leads with Henry Hull’s snarling Werewolf of London rendered in paint — the original cinematic werewolf — but the issue’s soul is its tribute to Bela Lugosi, the Dracula who gave horror its accent and its tragedy. Bram Stoker’s count, the Ghost of Frankenstein, and a side trip to Toho for Mothra round out a dossier that swings from Universal gothic to atomic-age kaiju without missing a beat.
Cover Spotlight
Henry Hull's snarling WEREWOLF OF LONDON in paint — the original cinematic werewolf, still formidable, still feral, and not getting nearly enough credit.
☠ Collector's Notes
The Lugosi tribute is the keystone — FM saying goodbye to Dracula himself with the weight it deserved. With Ron Cobb painting Henry Hull’s wolf up front, Issue #49 pairs naturally with Issue #41 on any werewolf shelf.
