Wait, those aren't turkey bones!<br /><br />I love how strangely grisly this is ... yet ... can't be consistent in method. Why not just have the giant bugs stab them? Somehow, they carry around the skin dissolving chemical (how) to turn them into perfect little skeletons. And who was the other person tied up? It's a mad house, I tell you!<br /><br />I actually like the art in this, it's very competent for the time.Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-77963209240291221852019-11-30T08:35:21.773-08:002019-11-30T08:35:21.773-08:00https://www.comics.org/issue/1967/#1153491 reveals...https://www.comics.org/issue/1967/#1153491 reveals there was a text story in the same issue which was the last appearance of both Dan and Dr. Strange.Darcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01598465647270663106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-70315977190640713452019-11-28T01:04:38.959-08:002019-11-28T01:04:38.959-08:00I think that we're once again looking at work ...I think that we're once again looking at work in which Charles Sultan had a very able hand. He was working for Chesler at the time, and did some of the covers for <i>Scoop Comics</i>.<br /><br />I've been infuriated with other alleged scientists, but I've never considered dissolving the soft tissues of their children.

As with the two young men who have their throats torn out in that nasty Crimebuster/Iron Jaw story you covered a little while ago, the author spends a surprising amount of time building the characters of these victims before summarily slaughtering them; the bit in which the Shirley Temple knockoff prays for "brains" seems particularly mean-spirited.
