episode 2: PLOP!
Hey there, darklings. LOD is back with a new episode dedicated to one of the quirkiest comic series of them all - DC Comics' PLOP!
Fusing horror and humor, PLOP! managed to entertain readers for 24 issues from 1973-1976, and featured the art of legends such as Bernie Wrightson, Alfredo Alcala, Ramona Fradon, Lee Marrs, George Evans, and of course the great Sergio Aragones, with genuinely funny tales by writer Steve Skeates. This week horror host Herm welcomes back fellow fear fan Mark Cain from The United Nations of Horror to discuss this seminal series of guffaws and gore. Join us, IF you dare...
