Vampirella #109

Warren's October 1982 "100 Page Summer Spectacular" delivers a genuinely atmospheric package, and Sanjulián's painted cover sets the mood perfectly — a gaunt, wild-eyed figure in a sweeping crimson cloak looms in a candlelit stone chamber while a shadowy, knife-wielding man in a wide-brimmed hat crouches menacingly in the foreground. The cover copy tantalizes with "What ghosts and demons lurk in the corridors of the mind?" and promises ten supernal tales featuring the art of José González and Felix Mas, including the González-illustrated "The Corpse with the Missing Mind" written and colored by Bill DuBay. For fans of Warren's distinctive blend of horror and painterly craft, this oversized issue is a rich slice of early-'80s magazine horror at its most evocative.
