Gwandanaland Comics #258

This 2017 Gwandanaland Comics collection reprints Web of Mystery: Volume 2, showcasing the spine-tingling pre-code horror that made the series a standout of its era. Jim McLaughlin's cover art sets an immediately unsettling tone: a menacing green-faced figure holds a terrified blonde woman captive, surrounded by leering tribal masks and a gaunt, sinister accomplice, with the villain's chilling threat — "If you won't be my queen, then you'll be my slave… just like these horror masks that hold you!" — spelled out in a speech bubble. Tagged "Weird! Eerie! Startling!" and priced at a dime in the original, this volume delivers exactly the atmosphere those words promise.
