Amazing Ghost Stories #14 - Matt Baker cover

Matt Baker

Amazing Ghost Stories v1 #14, 1954 - Swamp creatures converge upon a couple's small boat on this strange horror cover. The man tries to fend them off with a harpoon while the woman clings to him for protection, her clothing torn suggestively. Matt Baker employs a triangular layout to create this well balanced composition. The adeptly drawn foliage on the sides and toward the top of the cover not only establish the setting but adds decoration as well. Other artists in this golden age horror comic include Ed Goldfarb and Everett Raymond Kinstler. This is 1 of 3 Amazing Ghost Stories issues by Baker.
