Chilling Tales #13 (CGC 3.0 with off-white to white pages) $425: :news: ^^ thehumantorch. Thanks Dave!

Superb pre-code horror cover by Matt Fox. Better known for his covers of Weird Tales pulps from 1943-1951, Matt did not have a huge body of comic work; however, his pre-code horror work was noteworthy.

This is such a creepy cover with the monstrous being (love the shorts) pulling a zombie from its grave. The details are just remarkable- skulls and bones in the foreground of the graveyard, a snake slithering thru a skull, bats flying overhead and a radiating yellow moon. Love the coloring.

Just in time for Halloween!

Weird Mysteries #2 (CGC 4.5 with off-white to white pages. Small piece re-attached to cover with tape.) $800: :news: ^^ bounty_coder. Thanks Aaron!

Combine Weird Mysteries and Bernard Baily covers and you have some of the most sought after pre-code horror comics. Bernard Baily was a master of the eerie, creepy, grotesque and ghastly covers and artwork. Weird Mysteries #2 is one of those great covers. Add to that the haunting story, “Robot Woman” with artwork by Basil Wolverton and a ghoulish acid-in-the-face panel and you have a must-have comic for your collection.

This 4.5 presents nicely for its grade. There is slight Newton Rings on the top center ghoul with the drool. Other than that, it’s a great looking book.

I'm not an expert in Planets like other collectors, but that copy has the best colors I've seen. Pretty tough book to find as well. Freakin' awesome man. That Weird comics is a classic...that cover is nuttier than a fruitcake.
