House of Hammer (1976 UK)
Basically Britain's answer to Famous Monsters,this great mag mixed reviews and comic adaption of Hammer movies,and had great covers mainly by Brian Lewis.

Creepy (1964–1983, 145 issues)
The mighty WARREN Publishing launched Creepy in 1964

HOUSE OF HAMMER - the best horror mag ever for me. It was the first time I'd read full reviews of films I'd only heard about ( and many that I hadn't! )

The Hammer comic strips were wonderful ( often based on the original shooting script ). And those Brian Lewis covers were works of art.

Yeah I think it was first mag I remember buying,the covers allways bring back memories,especially this one.

I remember being quite shocked when I saw that issue, as it was the first ( and only ) not to feature original artwork!

So many to choose from, but these are two of my favourites:
