Halloween on the Prairie GUNSMOKE "The Thing!"

While this comic's backup series Masked Marvel, featured a costumed hero pretending to be a ghost...

...the title strip's protagonist faced an actual supernatural threat, albeit, not the one shown on this purely-symbolic cover by H C Kiefer!

Bet you didn't see that plot-twist coming, did ya?

Illustrated by Doug (Jonny Quest) Wildey, this never-reprinted tale appeared in Youthful's Gunsmoke #16 (1952), the final issue of the series.

Halloween on the Prairie "WereWolf Goes West"...in B/W AND Color!

Two years ago, we presented "Vampire Goes West"...

...so, this time, it's a lycanthrope in the Weird West during the Halloween season...with a surprise guest-star tossed-in!

Appearing in the HTF tabloid Monster Times #24 in 1973 (where it was printed at full original art size), this tale featuring a cameo by the Masked Rider of the Plains and his Faithful Indian Companion was penned by Nicola Cuti and rendered by Frank Brunner.

Then, we discovered it had been reprinted in Eclipse's Unknown Worlds of Frank Brunner #2 (1985)...

...in full, bloody cool, color!

It's a Halloween season treat (no trick) to you, faithful readers!
