Vic Prezio’s Kharis the Mummy shambles across Issue #36 — the issue that closes 1965 — whose keeper is the “Monster Make-Up Handbook” by a young Dick Smith, the how-to monster kids pored over for years. Filmbooks on The Alligator People, The Mummy’s Ghost, and The Return of the Fly fill out the issue.
