Eerie v3 #65 - Alex Toth, Bernie Wrightson art

Eerie v3 #65

Eerie v3 #65, 1975 - The murderous Hacker returns to London on another killing spree. Following several clues, Lt. Smythe of Scotland Land gains entry into an exclusive gentlemen's club. Alex Toth's drawings are interspersed with ominous shapes. He also employs more than a few visual devices, including a panel dripping with viscous liquid. Not surprisingly, Toth's storytelling skills result in exemplary page designs. Bernie Wrightson contributes the issue's frontispiece: a rendition of Cousin Eerie relaxing in his library of horrors. Beautifully drawn, scene radiates with precise and textural linework (the hot pink color doesn't hurt either). Other artists in this bronze age magazine include Paul Neary and Jose Ortiz. This is 8 of 14 Eerie issues by Wrightson and 4 of 5 Eerie issues by Toth.
