PS Artbooks Softee: Forbidden Worlds #18

This PS Artbooks softee collection reprints Forbidden Worlds: Stories of Strange Adventure, and the cover immediately sets an unsettling tone — a towering, gaunt figure in formal evening wear looms giant-sized over a miniature cityscape, cane in hand, with the tantalizing tagline promising that if this tingles your spine, just wait until you reach "The Endless Rooms!" It's a wonderfully eerie slice of mid-century ACE Comics strangeness, with that vintage 12¢ cover price and Comics Code Authority stamp lending authentic period charm. A fine showcase of the imaginative, strange-adventure storytelling that made Forbidden Worlds such a distinctive title of its era.
