Tower of Shadows v1 #9, 1971 - A hydra-headed creature emerges from a manhole on this final issue of the series.
Bernie Wrightson's cover represents the lead story, an adaptation of
H.P. Lovecraft's "Pickman's Model". From the detailed background buildings to the monster's carefully delineated figure, Wrightson sets the horrific tone of the book perfectly. The
Jack Kirby and
Steve Ditko tales are both reprints from
Strange Tales #69. Starting next issue, the series is renamed
Creatures On The Loose. Other artists in this issue include Tom Palmer and Don Heck. This is 2 of 2
Tower of Shadows issues by
Wrightson. ///

I've heard they guy with the red shit is a self-portrait of Wrightson. If that's true, it seems likely the other guy is a specific person too.
I heard that too and I think you're right. Wrightson put himself in several stories/covers during the bronze age. Anyone know who the other guy is?
