Space pirates plan to destroy the Earth but first their commander hopes to force Linda Danvers to be his bride. This lead feature – from John Albano, Win Mortimer and Bob Oksner – fronts a collection of tales that are collectively a lot of fun.
READSatan sends Corrupta to Greenwich Village in a sneaky effort to capture his sister Devilina’s soul. Atlas (Seaboard) apes Warren’s B&W-magazine style with this C-list collection stories from the likes of Ric Estrada, John Albano, Frank Thorne and others.

READWhen a young girl plunges to her death, Tigerman tracks down those who traffic in runaways and extracts bloody revenge. This first appearance of Tigerman by John Albano and Ernie Colón kicks off a solid but unspectacular B&W anthology magazine from Atlas (Seaboard).
