Moomba was going to meet Goom. I loved those old monster comics. Stan Lee would come up with a name and the artists would come up with the visual after that. These were my favorite kind of comics as a kid. Wacky and wonderful.

Love those names. I'm glad I was growing up when Marvel and the Stan were there for me.

arg i love that house of secrets issue! read it in my dentist's office when i was a kid, she had a kick ass set of comics in the waiting room. this issue had one story, about a thief who escapes into a shop and through another door, that leads to another door and another and another. by the last panel, the dude was bearded and crazy and begging to be let out. blew my 6 year old little mind

'House of Secrets', 'House of Mystery' and 'Weird War' did that to me repeatedly. I loved those comics as a kid. Then as a teen they did 20 or so issues of 'I...Vampire' that totally captured my brain. 'Twilight'? Fuck that. Andrew Bennet was the original moody emo vampire. I liked that they brought him back in the wacky 'Dr 13' miniseries. Those 'I Vampire' issues are the ones I pull out when I hear some girl tell me that comics are stupid. Then she read those comics and they become a gateway like drug that gets her into a whole new world of awesome.
