Complete World Famous Creatures Hardcover Book

Complete World Famous Creatures Hardcover Book:

Collects #1-4. Coming at you from the earliest days of monster mania, World Famous Creatures magazine was put together quickly and cheaply to cash in on the popularity of Famous Monsters #1. The title lasted just four issues – two in 1958 and two in 1959 – and are much sought after by monster magazine collectors. This competitor came closest to FM in terms of content and visuals. The issues contain tons of large monster stills, Forry-like puns, and cut-out monster masks. The publisher even tried to copy Warren’s Captain Company by offering many mail-order monster items. There is also early John Severin art in the monster mix! Due to all the coupons and mask cutouts, most original copies are incomplete.
