WHERE NO MONSTER HAS GONE BEFORE

 
THE MONSTER TIMES

Just two issues into its run, THE MONSTER TIMES took a detour into outer space. Not a monster was to be found in their sophomore issue -- instead it was cover-to-cover coverage of the wildly popular TV series, STAR TREK. Not to worry, though; if you were a fan, this was like stumbling upon a dilithium crystal mine. Maybe the folks at MT were spot on to hitch their Wolf Man's wagon to the star that was the USS Enterprise, if only for just one issue. After all, STAR TREK was a huge phenomena at the time. Look for the super centerfold by Gray Morrow.

Set your phasers to fun!
