A few choice selections from the comics due out October 17th:

But this man's inner demons appear in the flesh to torment him - and it's driving the Man-Thing mad! Will Brian Lazarus succumb to the madness of everyday life? Then, in Gerber's never-before-seen sequel, what is the mystery behind the 'Screenplay of the Living Dead Man'?

Collecting MAN-THING (1974) #12, INFERNAL MAN-THING #1-3 and material from SAVAGE TALES (1971) #1.
