HORRIFIC "Hating Corpse" aka WEIRD TERROR "Double Murder" aka...

Sometimes a title just doesn't do the story justice...
...as this terror-tale from Horrific #4 (1953) from Comic Media aptly demonstrates!
When it was reprinted in the same publisher's Weird Terror #13 (1954), the title and opening caption text were altered...
...but nothing else (except the coloring, which was normal in reprints) was changed!
The original creatives are unknown.
The story was redrawn by Oscar Stepancich, using the exact same script, for Eerie Publications' b/w magazine Horror Tales #V6N4 (1969), and retitled "The Corpse that Lives!".
Regrettably, I don't have a copy of that issue.
Join us next week as we present another tale your grandparents didn't want your parents to see!
