"With solid writing and unforgettable art ranging from ultra-realistic to bad-acid trips, Creepy rightfully holds a place in comics history." -Fangoria.com
Solidly above average. Creepy was always hit-or-miss for me (in addition to being B+W which is never fun for horror) and this collection is a good mix of the good and bad.
If allowed, I'd give this volume 3 1/2 stars. This volume was enjoyable, and each issue contained several nice stories. Unlike its companion, Eerie, which recently lost my interest, Creepy stands above since it has no continuity stories and still features some interesting art. I recently completed Dark Horse's Eerie Archives vol. 19 and found it a real chore to do so. But, this volume of Creepy was simply a much easier read. So, I will try obtaining more Creepy Archives. Fun, fun.
I was lucky and collected a full set of these magazines and got a chance to read the fantastic stories and enjoy the incredible art from many of the greats, many of who got their start here, from the comic world. If you like offbeat horror, supernatural, SiFi and just plan different stories then these are the magazines for you. Very recommended
