Black and White Wednesday: "The Cursing of Captain Skull" by Fox and Hickman

Check it out, Groove-ophiles! Here's a supernatural pirate tale written by Golden Age great Gardner Fox and illustrated by sci-fi and fantasy master Stephen Hickman! Where, oh where, would one find such a rare and unlikely team-up of talented titans? Why, in the pages of Skywald's 1972 Psycho Annual, baby!

Groove's Faves: "Death Is Bliss!" by O'Neil, Wein, Kaluta, and Friends

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Let's take another trip back to the 30s via the 70s! "Death Is Bliss!" from DC's The Shadow #4 (January 1974) is one cool and creepy tale! Written by the dyn-o-mite team of Denny O'Neil and Len Wein with pencils by Mike Kaluta and inks by some of his mightily-talented pals (Howard Chaykin, Steve Hickman, and Bernie Wrightson--Can you follow the signs that reveal who inked what, Groove-ophile?)--whooEE! We're talkin' high-octane comics greatness, baby!
