Marvel Comics' Horror Heroes

The 1970's was a time of change: music, movies and especially comics. The loosening of the strict Comics Code Authority's banning of zombies, werewolves, vampires and pretty much anything ghoulish and macabre opened up a sliver of hope for all us monster kids and Marvel took full advantage by not only introducing classic monsters of literature but a whole bunch of denizens of the dark - all with a Marvel spin. Topics include: How the monsters came about. The writers and artists that breathed life to horror heroes. The ones that lasted and the ones that didn't quite find an audience. And of course wild tangents other stuff. ​Opening introduction and closing announcement is by GC ​ Opening and closing music by Trigger Warning.
