It's Mummy time with Scary Monsters #121, which spans material from Universal to Hammer and beyond. Scott Jackson's mummified front-and-back-cover artwork sure sets the disinterred pace.
In addition to Karl Freund/Boris Karloff's Imhotep landmark, the Mummy ('32), #121 covers Tom Tyler, Lon Chaney Jr and Christopher Lee's tongue-less Kharis. Plus eerie emphasis falls on the Hammer "sequels", Curse of the Mummy's Tomb, Blood from the Mummy's Tomb and the Mummy's Shroud.
And that's not all. Among the fruitful bandaging one will find articles on Popoca, the Aztec Mummy; the tragic, Guanajuato Mummies; the legend of King Tut's Tomb; Assignment: Terror; mad scientists; Lon Chaney Sr; Jack Pierce; cinematic reincarnation and curses; the "Kaiju Korner"; coffin-escape devices; "Familiar Faces of Fright Films"; and new insights into Carnival of Souls.
