Monsters Unleashed #8

Marvel's Monsters Unleashed #8 from 1974 delivers pure horror-magazine atmosphere, with Earl Norem's painted cover depicting a savage, fur-clad beast-man and a lurching undead figure menacing a chained blonde woman above a bubbling cauldron — a genuinely unsettling scene teased as "Frenzy in the House of Freaks." Inside, Doug Moench and Val Mayerik bring you "Monsters from the Sea," and the issue rounds out with Man-Thing, Warrior of Mars, and a ghoulish gallery of photos and features. For fans of Marvel's 1974 black-and-white horror era, this one packs a satisfying amount of macabre variety into a single package.
