Weird Worlds

A short-lived but gloriously grotesque entry from Eerie Publications, Weird Worlds ran for just five issues from 1970 to 1971, delivering a signature blend of macabre science fiction and horror. The series is most closely associated with the singular, bulbous-lined art of Basil Wolverton, whose distinctive, over-the-top style defined its most memorable covers and stories. With frequent interior art from A. Reynoso and Dick Ayers, the title stands as a raw, unpolished artifact of the early-70s black-and-white horror-comic boom, prized for its unhinged creativity and Wolverton's unique visual madness.
