Korku March 1975 Turkish Comic Turkey Vampirella #32 Warren Creepy Eerie

Korku – March 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 March 1975 issue presents a strong concentration of Vampirella material alongside classic Creepy and Eerie stories. Highlights include “Çingene Laneti” (Gypsy Curse), “Med-Cezir Oyunu” (Trick of the Tide), and “Vampirella – Mumyanın İntikamı” (The Mummy’s Revenge), all adapted from Vampirella #38, offering a cohesive set of stories centered around Warren’s iconic character. These entries reflect the darker and more refined storytelling style of the mid-1970s Vampirella run.

Complementing these are “Ölümün Portresi” (Portrait of Death) from Creepy #66 and “Pamukçu Çocuk ve Kaptan…” (Cotton Boy & Captain Blood!) from Eerie #61, adding variety in tone and narrative style. The issue also features “Kara Kedi” (The Black Cat), an adaptation of the Edgar Allan Poe story from Creepy #62, alongside “Buffalolar” (Buffaloed), reinforcing the anthology’s blend of literary adaptation and original comic storytelling. The cover is adapted from Vampirella #32, visually tying the issue to the Vampirella line and enhancing its overall collector appeal.
