Here's a piece of nonsense from the above mutant themed issue of Bizarre Adventures, courtesy of Mary Jo Duffy & Dave Cockrum. Dave, in particular, is clearly having a ball with one of his favourite characters, while Kurt is still in the period where his biggest worry is how many Errol Flynn references he can cram into each issue.
At a time when comics were just about to go grim, gritty and snarly, I defy anybody to read this one and not crack a smile.
Autobiography Of A Vampire was a nice little strip from Skywald that seemed to vanish, unfinished, just as it was getting started. Ricardo Villamonte's art is much nicer than his later work for Marvel or DC, showing he was born to be a horror artist, and Archaic Al Hewetson's script is actually comprehensible for once, wrapping The Horror Mood around an actual story. I also like the fact Al went out and photographed his local cemetery and shoehorned it into the art. It adds even more gothic-ness to the piece and is nicely experimental.
Shame it wasn't finished.
