Inside This Issue
Basil Gogos takes the cover of Issue #115 with Henry Hull’s Werewolf of London — a treat in the thick of the Ken Kelly era — while the contents chase the new wave: Brian De Palma’s Phantom of the Paradise gets a feature, Young Frankenstein follows up, and a report from the Famous Monsters Convention captures fandom finding its feet. “The Book of Bela” opens its first chapter for the Lugosi faithful.
Cover Spotlight
Basil Gogos paints Henry Hull's dapper, dangerous WEREWOLF OF LONDON — the original cinematic werewolf finally getting the Gogos treatment he always deserved.
☠ Collector's Notes
A Gogos cover in the heart of the Kelly era makes Issue #115 a marker for collectors charting the great cover-artist handoff — and the subject reaches back to the Universal canon the magazine was built on. The first “Book of Bela” chapter starts a thread Lugosi devotees follow into the next issue.
