#26 rides the early-’60s TV-horror wave with Roger Elwood’s “Inside Outer Limits,” but the real collector bait is “The Return of Frankens-ten,” a look back at the 1910 Edison Frankenstein, the very first film version of the Monster, alongside part two of the magazine’s sprawling King Kong history.
An uncredited painting of the alien from THE OUTER LIMITS episode "The Architects of Fear" — Robert Culp transformed into something the United Nations was absolutely not prepared to meet.
Film scholarship before anyone called it that: the look back at Edison’s 1910 Frankenstein — then a half-remembered ghost, decades from rediscovery — is the sort of piece that made FM the genre’s memory. Issue #26 also keeps the serialized King Kong history rolling.
