Random Reads: "Moonlight and Mayhem!" by Wessler and Wildey
Ya know, Groove-ophiles, the great Doug Wildey (Jonny Quest and Rio creator, don'tcha know) didn't do nearly enough comicbook work during the Groovy Age. A few issues of a DC war mag here, an ish of Jonah Hex there. But when he did draw a story...WOW! Here's some Wildey magic on a forgotten fear-fable written by Carl Wessler from DC's Unexpected #193 (June 1979) called "Moonlight and Mayhem!" Dig it, baby!
