Mort Todd's Monsters Attack! Volume 2 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798603996875)

The beloved horror comic magazine series MONSTERS ATTACK featured some of the world's greatest comic creators. Many of them were veterans of the fabled EC Comics, Atlas Comics (later Marvel Comics), Charlton Comics and Warren Publishing, including John Severin, Steve Ditko, Alex Toth, Gray Morrow, Gene Colan and Pat Boyette.

In the late 1980s, Mort Todd was Editor-in-Chief of the infamous Cracked magazine and already working with many of the living legends of the comic industry. A fan of creature culture since a kid, Mort was inspired to put out a horror magazine along the lines of Tales from the Crypt, Creepy and Famous Monsters with the awesome talent he assembled. He had launched an incredibly popular humor magazine called Cracked Monster Party, which indicated a 'serious' monster magazine might be successful as well... and it was Mort wrote many of the stories and as editor crafted the look of the book, a homage to his misspent youth

Since then, many comic fans have requested that Mort put together a collected edition and now the time is as ripe as a rotted zombie The series is in two volumes with notes about the creation of these comics by editor/writer/artist Mort Todd. There are also rare behind-the-scenes photos, art and other supplemental fun Volume 2 features the following psychotic episodes: Face It by Steve Ditko; Wake of the Monster by Pat Boyette; The Daemon by John Arcudi & Gene Colan; Tag Yer Ded by Mort Todd & John Severin; Illusion by Steve Ditko, Circulation: Zero by Charles E. Hall & Gray Morrow; A Job Well Done by Richard Meyers & Alex Toth; The Creator by Steve Ditko PLUS an unpublished story Transformation Flying by Charles E.
