Charlton's Scary Tales #17 (December 1978) makes a striking impression with cover art by Demetrio Sánchez Gómez, who fills the composition with a procession of gleaming skulls drifting across a psychedelically swirling landscape while a red-clad, red-haired woman stands her ground nearby — and a lurching green creature looms ominously in the shadows below. Two smaller panels at the bottom intensify the dread, pairing a shrieking bat-winged figure with a green-skinned menace closing in on a terrified woman. At 35 cents, this was a fine December pick for anyone who liked their horror served with vivid, unsettling style.
