I dont really have any Wrightson stuff-I searched ebay for affordable stuff like house of mystery but they are just like 3 pagers of Wrightson.  Anyone got a list of affordable Wrightson books that have all Wrightson interiors?

Bernie Wrightson Master of the Macabre 5 issue mini-series published in 1983 by Pacific Comics, contains reprints of many of his best works from the Warren magazines, plus additional content from Web of Horror, Badtime Stories, etc.  Very affordable.

List of contents by issue can be found here:  https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=261541

Good luck!  (thumbsu

DC Special (1977 series), issues 2, 14 and 20, reprint the Wrightson issues as 'Original Swamp Thing Saga'.

A cheaper option.

Drawn by a classic EC artist, Jack Kamen.

Much rougher-looking than his 50s style, which was much more polished; slicker-looking and heavily-shaded.

Although generally one of the more restrained of their horror artists, at times his characters could have quite sinister expressions.

I'd recommend finding a copy of Bernie Wrightson's Frankenstein. It's his greatest work. You can get a paperback copy on amazon for two bucks.

Keep an eye out for Berni Wrightson: A Look Back; it's long out of print and sells for crazy money, but it's a wonderful sampling of his 70s output.

just so Kav and others know: this is Mary Shelly's novel with Wrightson illustrations. The drawings are fantastic but it isn't a comic. The original trade is hard to find and expensive and to my knowledge has never been reprinted.
