Fredric March’s Oscar-winning Hyde leers out of Issue #62, captured under Basil Gogos’s brush — still the definitive transformation decades on. The issue runs in serial mode, with part-two installments of both “The Thing from Another World” and “Mark of the Vampire,” the full Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde filmbook, and the unsettling “Clown at Midnight.”
Fredric March's Mr. Hyde in paint — the Academy Award-winning transformation that set the template for every Jekyll-and-Hyde horror that followed.
Still the rare Oscar on a monster-magazine cover: Fredric March’s Hyde won Best Actor for 1932, and Gogos painting that face ties Issue #62 to the genre’s one early moment of Academy glory. The stacked part-two serials inside mark the era’s to-be-continued rhythm.
