Vampires #1 The Skinner Edition From Frank Forte
Los Angeles, Ca—Asylum Press brings you a horrific blood thirsty collection of PRE-CODE vampire tales. Editor/host Mr. Karswell (Haunted Horrors, The Horrors it All, Zombies, IDW) returns with yet another creepy, creaking castle literally swarming with vicious pre-code vampires! Featuring rarely seen blood sucker classics from the gory Golden Age of comics, highlighting the spine-chilling art of Lou Cameron, Dick Beck, George Klein, and more! Featuring the classic tales: "Vampire's Bite," "One Door from Disaster," and "Vampire Castle."
"I'm very excited to offer this Skinner cover to comic shops. We did a variant SKINNER cover to VAMPIRES #1 for the Kickstarter that was limited to 200 copies, " explains publisher Frank Forte, " we wanted to offer the image to comic shops so we did a variant color version with a different back cover (by me) so the Kickstarter version would still be a different version."
"Sketch covers are also popular, so we wanted to offer fans a chance to get their favorite horror artist to do a pre-code horror sketch on the cover of vampires #1, " Frank Forte continues, "what could be better than original pre-code vampire horror??"
The Diamond Comics Distributors pre-order cut - off date is 4/18/2022, so get your pre-orders in now at your local comic shop. Or you can do it online at the Previewsworld website.
