Description
"Underground Cartoon Workers", "Adults Only". 36 pages, chiefly illustrations. Began with #1, ceased with #6. "This is another H.P. Lovecraft issue, though Spain Rodriguez does a story of his own instead of one of Lovecraft's. Richard Corben illustrates the first story, Lovecraft's "The Rats in the Walls," which is about a man who returns to his ancestral home only to be driven mad by his family's curse. Charles Dallas illustrates a waking nightmare in Lovecraft's poem, "To a Dreamer," while Larry Todd takes on Lovecraft's "The Shadow from the Abyss," in which a man's mind is transposed with another mind from an ancient, mythical race, which slowly leads to a horrific discovery."--ComixJoint. Library has no. 5 (1972). Color cover illustration by Spain. Contributors: Spain Rodreiguez, Jack "Jaxon" Jackson, Richard Corben, Charles Dallas, Larry S. Todd, and Dave Sheridan. The Adler Archive of Underground Comix, Gift of Bill Adler.
