MOVIE MONSTER COMICS TREASURY...

Here's a book I got via eBay recently, not the publisher, but it's an interesting tome.  The stories are apparently in the public domain, and having just looked at the website, they're 'print-on-demand' and very reasonably priced, overseas postage being a mere $5 - though that makes me wonder how they're wrapped.  (Hopefully not in flimsy poly envelopes or they'll most likely get blootered in their journey through the post.)

There's quite a selection, with some being available in softcover and hardback, full colour or b&w (you have a choice), and the quality of the scanned pages will obviously depend on the condition of the originals, but there's some good stuff to be had.  Regarding the back cover notes, for 'a collection of six comics, each starring one of the famous monsters from the Universal horror movies', read 'five starring one of... etc.,' though it clarifies the correct number further on.

It also describes itself as a hardback, but it's actually a softcover, and the website only mentions a softcover for this edition, though with other books there's a choice between the two formats.  I assume the error could be an oversight, or perhaps it was originally intended to be available in both editions like some of the others.  Anyway, if this is the sort of book that rings your bell, tell your fellow Crivvies in our ever-hungry comments section.

Update: I've since learned the book does exist in hardback, same cover but with a different background colour.  Obviously, when they did the paperback, they forgot to change 'hardback' to 'softback' in the cover notes.  Although Retro Comic Reprints are, I understand, print-on-demand, I daresay a few are published in advance of being ordered just to have some ready-to-go or perhaps supply to bookstores.

Below, the hardback edition.  Note the Mummy and Wolfman covers have swapped places.
