The Beyond #2

"Weird, Spooky, Supernatural Stories"...So warned by every cover pages of The Beyond...One of the horror comics that gained notoriety in the so-called Golden Age of comics.BEYOND #2Januar 1951Cover: (Vampire rises from casket) (1) – Warren Kremer“The Mystery Of Lunablanca” (Maurice Gutwirth)“The Ghost Who Stole A Body” (Ken Rice) – reprinted in WEB OF MYSTERY #26“Valley Of The Scaly Monsters” („Ace Baker“) – reprinted in WEB OF MYSTERY #27“The Shrieking Terror” (Mike Sekowsky + Vince Alascia)Completely handlettered. The first covers for Ace’s horror comic books were executed by the delightful Warren Kremer (who never did a single horror story for Ace!).He did the odd crime story and used to be an Ace regular in the late forties.Unusual about this issue (and only occurrence): BEY2 gets by without the two traditional one-page “fillers”.Two of its stories run over 8 pages (instead of the standardized 7 pages).
