Status Updates From Eerie Archives Volume 2

EERIE issue 9.

The standout stories this issue were “Rub the Lamp” written by Allan Jadro with art by Jerry Grandenetti, “Isle of the Beast,” an adaptation of Richard Connell’s “The Most Dangerous Game” but with a werewolf written by Archie Goodwin with art by Steve Ditko, and “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge,” Ambrose Bierce’s story adapted by Archie Goodwin and illustrated by Bob Jenney.

Seven stories plus a demon illustrated by Angelo Torres for the Monster Gallery. This issue had several good stories including “Oversight” illustrated by Eugene Colan—a story very similar to Carpenter’s They Live, “Dark Rider” illustrated by John Severin—a weird western, and “Wolf Bait” illustrated by Rocco Mastroserio—a fun werewolf tale. All written by Archie Goodwin.

EERIE issue 7. January 10, 1967.

Eight stories plus a Hydra illustrated by Gray Morrow. Most of the stories are by Archie Goodwin. My favorite story was “It That Lurks” by Archie Goodwin with art by Dan Adkins. The monster in this one is very unconventional. But my favorite art was by Hector Castellon for “Hitchhike Horror” with a story by Archie Goodwin. Castellon has a messy style I really like.
