Inside This Issue
Three titans crowd Issue #59 — John Carradine, Vincent Price, and Dark Shadows’ Jonathan Frid, the last of them caught in a Basil Gogos portrait. Hammer’s late-’60s surge drives the slate, with Dracula Has Risen from the Grave and Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed, plus the molten “Face of Fire” from House of Wax.
Cover Spotlight
Jonathan Frid's Barnabas Collins rendered in paint — the fanged hero of DARK SHADOWS, brooding and aristocratic, as beloved by screaming teenagers as by monster kids.
☠ Collector's Notes
A 1969 time capsule of the Hammer surge — Dracula Has Risen from the Grave and Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed covered while the paint was still wet, with three horror generations (Carradine, Price, Frid) sharing one cover. The changing of the guard, caught mid-change.
