CGC certified: Fine- (5.5). Off-white to white pages. Cover: Tony Mortellaro? Scripts: Bruce Hamilton, uncredited others. Art: Loffredo, Sal Trapani, Tony Tallarico? Overstreet: "Bondage cover." GPAnalysis: A 5.5 sold for $1560 in May 2020. A lusty mummy "wraps it before he taps it" on this mag's bondage cover. 1950s kids must have been flummoxed by the enigmatic short-timer Loffredo's utterly insane terror-tale, "The Immortal Brain," in which a cranially-challenged creep chops open the hero's brainpan and uses it as a hidey-hole for his own ghastly grey matter. Also in this ish: Stabbings, whipping panels, a captive offers her jailer sex for food ("And would you truly SELL YOURSELF for a mere SCRAP of BREAD?"), then kills him and eats his corpse; ads for Hitler stamps and religion ("If you are troubled, worried or unhappy IN ANY WAY — we will rush this wonderful message of PRAYER and FAITH to you by AIR MAIL"). A deluxe limited edition of 12 hardcover catalogues is available, in addition to a small number of softcovers. 400 lots, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcover $40, deluxe hardcover with dust jacket and limitation plate $200. Eight of the 12 hardcovers are pre-ordered and the rest will go quickly, so reserve yours now. To order, contact [email protected] . Consignments welcome for PBA's Spring 2022 Comic Book sale. Top prices for Pre-Code Horror, Golden Age, Silver Age, original art and ephemera. Find out why PBA is the new fan-fave of comics auctioneers. "This is some of the best commentary I've yet seen on the quality of the content of comic books... Priceless." — R. Crumb.
