Blazing Combat
''Blazing Combat'' was an American war-comics magazine published quarterly by Warren Publishing from 1965 to 1966. Written and edited by Archie Goodwin, with artwork by such industry notables as Gene Colan, Frank Frazetta, John Severin, Alex Toth, and Wally Wood, it featured war stories in both contemporary and period settings, unified by a humanistic theme of the personal costs of war, rather than by traditional men's-adventure motifs. Publication history Following the success of Warren Publishing's black-and-white horror-comics magazine ''Creepy'' in 1964, publisher James Warren expanded into war fiction the following year with the short-lived ''Blazing Combat''. The black-and-white, 64-page ''Blazing Combat'' ran four quarterly issues, cover-dated October 1965 to July 1966, and, like ''Creepy'', carried a 35-cent cover price.''Blazing Comba ...

Eerie (magazine)
''Eerie'' was an American magazine of horror comics introduced in 1966 by Warren Publishing. Like '' Mad'', it was a black-and-white magazine intended for newsstand distribution and did not submit its stories to the comic book industry's voluntary Comics Code Authority. Each issue's stories were introduced by the host character, Cousin Eerie. Its sister publications were ''Creepy'' and ''Vampirella''. Publication history The first issue cost 35¢, was published in September 1966 and only had a 200-issue run of an "ashcan" edition. With a logo by Ben Oda, it was created overnight by editor Archie Goodwin and letterer Gaspar Saladino to establish publisher Jim Warren's ownership of the title when it was discovered that a rival publisher (later known as Eerie Publications) would be using the name. Warren explained, "We launched ''Eerie'' because we thought ''Creepy'' ought to have an adversary. The Laurel and Hardy syndrome always appealed to me. ''Creepy'' and ''Eerie'' are like ...
