“Don’t turn your back for even a second, for I, the Cryptologist, have returned from the mire to bring you the latest issue of my despicable magazine! For fans of Neal Adams’ horror comics, I’ve got a wealth of his dark imaginings to share with you, plus never-before-seen things to pique your interest. Once you’ve savoured that, you’ll be fascinated to see Batman’s perilous encounters with the macabre, before I disclose some surprising actors who couldn’t resist the lure of the horror movie—one of them being Humphrey Bogart! Spiderbaby’s very own Beverly Washburn will venture into my lair to discuss her time in horror, as a prelude to my setting loose the spiders that terrorized cinema screens, comic books and the pulps. And before you go, I’ll throw in more of those lurid paperback covers along, with your regular dose of B-movie masterpieces and another selection from the Hammer archive. So if you enjoy the dark side, I dare you to step on into my creepy magazine with editor Peter Normanton, solely cooked up for you retro horror fans!”
