Inside This Issue
A Basil Gogos cover, and one of FM’s boldest design strokes — the famous six-color treatment that keeps #51 on collectors’ want-lists. Inside it’s dense with treasure: a Wolf Man filmbook and the reprinted “Meal with a Monster,” William F. Nolan’s account of lunch with Karloff, Matheson, Beaumont, and Bloch.
Cover Spotlight
Oliver Reed's cursed werewolf from CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF — presented six times in six different colors, a psychedelic tribute to Hammer's most tortured monster.
☠ Collector's Notes
That lunch table — Karloff with Matheson, Beaumont, and Bloch — was essentially the Southern California horror-writing scene in one booth, captured casually because nobody yet knew to be reverent. Documents like Issue #51 are why biographers mine this run.
