I got this from the Wikipedia entry:
When I was a kid, my brothers brought home all manner of comic book - this was in the 1970s, when comics were put on newstands willy-nilly, so the weekly haul might be war comic heavy, or super-hero heavy (I liked that most of all), or sometimes horror comic heavy. These were watered down Comics Code horror comics, like the one shown above, & despite my desire as a kid to read everything put in front of me, I didn't really enjoy these types of comics. Not scary enough? I don't know.
I've gone back & read a few from the 1950s, but mainly because Steve Ditko was drawing them. His art makes everything worth reading.
But comics like "The Witching Hour": Did you ever read them? Did you like them?
