Tomb of Dracula #16

I just flipped through a copy of Tomb of Dracula #16 from January 1973. And wow, what a great edition. I haven’t read the story yet, but the ads in this one are hysterical. Just inside the cover is the classic, “The Insult that made a man out of Mac.” Remember this one? Have a Charles Atlas body in 7 days! Page 4 has an ad for a book that will make you a master of Karate for only 99 cents. On page 8 and 9 is a double spread where you can join the Record Club of America and get six LPs or 8-track tapes for only 99 cents.  There are so many others I’d love to write about but it’s late and I want to go to sleep. Maybe I’ll start a category about funny comic book ads and scan a few of them in. I don’t know. That might be too much work for too little reward.

  1. I love these old comic books! And Dracula… he’s the best. Jonathan Harker was kind of a wuss but Professor Van Helsing was damn cool!
