    Cover by Basil Wolverton.

    Bug-eyed monsters, two-timing homicidal husbands and wives, rampaging corpses and even one or two cases of severe halitosis or crossed-eyes. This title has the lot... including a better-than-healthy dose of the one and only Basil Wolverton! His intricately detailed grotesques of bizarre or misshapen people earned him the title of "Producer of Preposterous Pictures of Peculiar People who Prowl this Perplexing Planet." Just the covers alone have had the gang at PS muttering in their sleep just crossing off the days that this baby would come along.

    Featuring Stories and art by Matt Baker, John Giunta, Bob Jenney, Richard Chase, Charles Nicholas, Everett Raymond Kinstler, Norman Nodel, Harry Lazarus, A.C. Hollingsworth, Tony Mortellaro, Eugene Hughes, Hy Fleishman and Basil Wolverton.

    Softcover, 184 pages, full color.

    Cover price $24.99.
