Inside This Issue
Kong is king again: Issue #125 rides the wave of the De Laurentiis remake with poster art on the cover and a “King Kong 1977” preview inside. Dark Shadows gets a behind-the-scenes look, “Monsters from Mexico” reaches its conclusion, and “If It’s Midnight, This Must Be Transylvania” opens Bob Cremer’s major Bela Lugosi biography — part one of a series collectors would follow for issues to come.
Cover Spotlight
Poster art from Dino De Laurentiis's 1976 KING KONG — the big-budget remake that divided monster kids but still put Kong back on top of the world, and the FM cover.
☠ Collector's Notes
Issue #125 catches Kong-mania at full boil — the De Laurentiis remake hype machine in motion — and starts something collectors track across issues: part one of Bob Cremer’s major Bela Lugosi biography. The “Monsters from Mexico” series also takes its bow here.
