Here's the truly strange cover for the fourteenth issue of The Thing from Charlton. This is one of Ditko's weirdest images. In this issue Ditko draws another perverse fairy tale titled "Rumplestiltskin" as well as the stories "The Evil Eye", "Doom in the Air", and the cover story "Inheritance". You can read the issue at this link.
Rip Off
Have you heard the nickname for Donald Trump - Trumplethinskin?
ReplyDeleteThat's a new one on me. But it seems quite appropriate. He's a disaster.
DeleteThis cover isn't quite as arresting as some of the previous you've shown. Rumplestiltskin is a grotesque story, but very cool!
ReplyDeleteThis is for me the iconic Ditko of this early era. I love the creepy ugly face.
