Description

This is the fourth title in our bestselling Sex and Horror series, which celebrates the 1960s and '70s publishing phenomenon known as 'fumetti sexy' — Italian adult comics with a unique take on such genres as horror, crime, fantasy, history and fairy tales.

The comics were hugely successful, due in part to their uninhibited mix of twisted humour, gory violence, and up-front eroticism. However, what makes them so sought-after today is their technicolour cover illustrations, rendered by classically trained painters.

Here is a further collection of those superb covers — a visual feast of outrageous pulp art.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Critics praise the series for its abundance of monsters and macabre themes, described as having "more vampires, ghouls, devils, freaks, monsters and maniacs than you could shake a zombie's severed arm at" (The Erotic Review). It is also considered "highly collectable and long overdue" (Coffin Cuties).
