Yeah, that and Castle Of Frankenstein, which almost never came out,
were always great finds on the magazine stands... and that reminds me,
CoF had one cover with Barnabas Collins standing with a sexy
Vampirella-type lady, so "out of character" from the series, but a
cool interpretation. I'm pretty sure my copy is long lost, but almost
certainly there's a site of CoF out there, with some cover scans. When
I have time I'll look around for that...
