A TASTE FOR THE MACABRE IN THE MIGHTY MARVEL MANNER.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on assorted full-page Marvel house ads from 1973, and featuring some of their more spooky and/or supernatural titles of the day, and all thanks in part to the so-called "Comics Code" loosening its grip on the acceptable horror aspects/tropes of the American comic-book in the early seventies.

"As you'll see, Marvel was really pushing their supernatural mags (both color and black and white), since (thanks to all the hoopla surrounding movies like "The Exorcist") the supernatural was a huge trend at that time."

Monster of Frankenstein readers when someone says "Frankenstein is the monster":

mary shelley writing about a monster rejected and abandoned by its creator and dedicating it to her own father i need to smoke a blunt with her i need to give her head

Poseidon screaming "Monster" at Odysseus has the same vibe as Victor Frankenstein calling his creature inhuman and disgusting and un-alive. My brother in Christ, you created him.

I'd like to introduce to everyone this horrid thing I created about a year ago but haven't shown many people yet (probably for the best).

This is Baby. AKA The Monster. AKA Sight Tremendous and Abhorred, AKA Vile Insect, AKA A Thing Such As Even Dante Could Not Have Conceived, etc, etc. It's made from bits of scrap fabric I scrounged from various sources and is roughly the size of a human toddler. Its design is based on Mary Shelly's original descriptions of Frankenstein's creature.

But that's not all! Behold!

You can dissect this little abomination to reveal a full set of crocheted, knitted, and scrap fabric organs, all hand-stitched by yours truly!

It has a heart, stomach, lungs, liver, small and large intestine, kidneys, bladder, and, of course, a brain! So it can ponder the horrors of its own existence!

I used this pattern by Less Than Three for the heart. I ended up felting it because I screwed up most of the stitches (I was relatively new to crochet at the time). The result was a bit of a blobby mess, but oh well.

So yeah. This thing lives in my house now (my family hates it). I have yet to reap the full consequences of my hubris.

“Oh, Frankenstein… Remember, that I am thy creature; I ought to by thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed.”

THROWBACK TO THE UNDISPUTED FLAGSHIP FIGURES OF SUPER-SEVENTIES MARVEL HORROR.

PIC(S) INFO: "October is a mixed-up Monster Rally" -- Spotlight on a mega photo-dump of the October month entry to Marvel’s 1975 calendar countdown to All Hallows Eve, and featuring some of Marvel's then premiere macabre characters from their respective horror titles. Artwork by Mike Ploog.

So here's a post ten months in the making, and I've only been waiting this many months to finally be able to post this. Man, was this classic Marvel horror piece worth the wait, or what?! Happy October month, Tumblrland!
