Dig it, Groove-ophiles! One of Ol' Groove's all-time favorite horror stories is Oscar Wilde's A Picture of Dorian Gray. Teen Groove read it in high-school and was totally wowed by the concept and Wilde's writing. Archaic Al Hewetson and Cesar Lopez Vera did a fine job of adapting the classic tale in Scream #5 (February 1974). Hope you dig it, too!

Another fantastic Wednesday! Great art in this one.
ReplyDeleteReally good adaptation, I always thought the best filmed version was the one Fan Curtis did. I loved his films and tv series from Dark Shadows to Trilogy Of Terror to the Dark Shadows revival.
ReplyDelete*Dan Curtis, freaking spellcheck.
