Vol. 1, No. 1 (Second series)
May, 1974
Cadence Comics Publications (Marvel Comics)
Editor: Roy Thomas
Cover art: Bob Larkin

This is the second go-round for a horror comic magazine that began as a sort of "pulp digest".

While the first series (that lasted for two issues) focused its content on fiction, this new version fell back on Marvel's tried and true cash cow at the moment, horror comics.
