Where Monsters Dwell #16

Jul 1972 · Marvel · 0.20 USD
“Beware of Googam, Son of Goom!!”

In "Beware of Googam, Son of Goom!!," a bitter performer in a dummy horse act takes a dark turn when jealousy drives him to murder his co-star. When he returns to the stage that night, the costume he now wears—once a mere prop—reveals a terrifying, life of its own. Bill Benulis' art and Jack Abel's inks bring this eerie tale to life, while Gil Kane's cover and Vince Colletta's inks capture the story's unsettling tone. A 20-cent comic from 1972, it's a standout in Marvel's early horror anthology run.
