About this Collection

This collection reprints a selection of horror and science fiction comics from the 1950s, originally published by a variety of small presses and later compiled under the Thrill Book! banner by Pure Imagination. It showcases the lurid, often over-the-top artwork and storytelling typical of the pre-Code era, featuring tales of aliens, monsters, and the macabre. The volume serves as a sampler of vintage genre comics from the atomic age, appealing to fans of retro horror and sci-fi ephemera.

In the shadowy streets of a city on edge, a mysterious alien-like killer strikes under cover of night, leaving twelve victims in his wake. When police lieutenant Jordan unravels the chilling truth, he confronts a seemingly ordinary man in a monstrous costume—revealing a quiet window clerk seeking vengeance for years of cruelty. A striking blend of noir dread and twisted irony, this story features Jack Cole’s distinctive art and inks, and a cover by Joe Orlando, Wally Wood, and Russ Heath, each contributing to its eerie, timeless look.

The city's in panic as an alien-like serial killer stalks the streets at night. Twelve people have to die until clever police lieutenant Jordan comes up with an explanation and confronts the fiend, who turns out to be a mousy city window clerk who wears an imposing monster costume with stilts, who is taking revenge on those who abused him.
