Creepy #9: "Terror in the Dark Kingdom!" (Frazetta and Gray Morrow!)

Download Creepy #9





Once I get started on a sword and sorcery track, it's tough for me to get derailed. However, let's look at Creepy #9's assets: "Winged Terror" cover painting by Frank Frazetta! "Dark Kingdom" cover story by Archie Goodwin and drawn by the artistic genius Gray Morrow! Can you say, "this is Sparta!" Ayep! They're in here, too. The ending is a bit gimmicky, but the art more than makes up for it in this classic tale featured in Creepy #9. The rest of the issue is nicely rounded out with Reed Crandall and Joe Orlando art. Steve Ditko is on board, too.

Red Circle Comics was an imprint used by Archie Comics Publications, Inc. to publish non-Archie characters, such as their superheroes and horror comics, in the 1970s and '80s. This is along the same lines as Red Circle's Chilling Adventures In Sorcery, which means that you'll find Don Glut and Gray Morrow story and art here, too.

Here are some difficult to locate issues of the first volume of Savage Tales, which prominently featured Conan the Barbarian. Accept no substitutes as these rip-snortin' adventures also featured phenomenal art by the likes of Barry Windsor-Smith, Esteban Moroto, Al Williamson, Gray Morrow, John Buscema and Neal Adams. Aside from Conan, some noteworthy characters that Savage Tales brought to life were Ka-Zar, the jungle lord, and Man-Thing. The first issue adapts Robert E. Howard's classic "The Frost Giant's Daughter," which is drawn by the aforementioned Windsor-Smith.
