Korku – August 1975 Issue – Benli Yayınevi Turkish Edition
Description:
This comic magazine is an issue from the Korku series published by Benli Yayınevi between 1971 and 1977. The series ran for a total of 79 issues and was released on a monthly basis, although individual issues were not numbered. It represents one of the most important follow-up publications to Korku Magazin, continuing the tradition of bringing American horror comics to Turkish readers in anthology format.
Printed entirely in black and white and in a compact format (22 x 16 cm), this issue reflects the typical production standards of Turkish comic magazines of the early 1970s. The content primarily consists of Turkish translations of stories sourced from Warren Publishing’s Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella magazines, along with material from other American publishers such as Skywald and Marvel. This blend of sources created a rich and varied horror anthology that appealed to a wide audience.
This August 1975 issue features a diverse mix of stories drawn from Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella, highlighting the series’ strong reliance on Warren-era material. Among the standout entries is “Şeytan Gözü” (The Evil Eye) from Vampirella #29, accompanied by “Vampirella ve Derinlerdeki Hayalet,” also from the same issue, offering readers a substantial dose of Vampirella content. These stories reflect the character’s blend of gothic horror and supernatural intrigue, enhancing the issue’s collector appeal.
Additional stories include “Spook – Örümcek Ağı” from Eerie #58, “Kurbağa Tanrı” (Frog God) from Creepy #50, and other standalone pieces such as “Drakula,” “Elveda Sevgilim Elveda,” and “Balık Yemi,” contributing to the anthology’s varied tone. The cover is adapted from Vampirella #29, directly linking the issue visually to the included Vampirella material and reinforcing its connection to one of Warren Publishing’s most iconic horror titles.
