Item Description
Complete set of seven 13x20.5" thin artboards featuring original pen and ink art by an unidentified S.M. Iger Studio comic book artist for "Mysteries" issue #6 published by Superior/Dynamic Publications in March, 1954. Art was produced by the S.M. Iger Studio, one of the first comics "packagers" that produced outsourced comic-book material for publishers entering the new medium. Each page has "S.M. Iger" printed name at top left. Art is for story entitled "Swamp Vengeance" and deals with man being haunted by the ghost of a woman he killed in the swamp by feeding her to alligators. Last page features two hands pulling him down into the swamp. Skulls are seen in five panels and one panel shows alligator biting woman's arm. Another five panels feature woman's ghost. This pre-code horror comic story is richly illustrated, w/bold, thick lines. Typical aging and handling wear, w/scattered editorial corrections/marks at margins. Fine overall.
