Roy Thomas’ ALTER EGO #97 just went to press, and it examines the non-EC Horror Comics of the 1950s, including work from BILL EVERETT, DICK BRIEFER, STEVE DITKO, JOE MANEELY, GENE COLAN , MORT MESKIN, SHELLY MOLDOFF, RUSS HEATH, BOB POWELL, JACK COLE, SIMON & KIRBY, BOB FUJITANI, and others. There’s also our usual FCA (Fawcett Collectors of America) section with C.C. BECK and MARC SWAYZE,  MR. MONSTER’s COMIC CRYPT, and more, behind a creepy, eerie cover by BILL EVERETT! (This issue’s so good, Roy’s having us print some extra copies to give out to the guests at the huge Halloween party he and wife Dann are planning!)
