Sex and Horror Volume 4
AU$55 Read MoreAdd to cartNicola D’Agostino; Y. El-Droubie
London: Korero Press, 2016.“This is the fourth title in our bestselling Sex and Horror series, which celebrates the 1960s and 1970s publishing phenomenon known as fumetti sexy–Italian adult comics with a unique take on such genres as horror, crime, fantasy, history and fairy tales. The comics were hugely successful, due in part to their uninhibited mix of twisted humour, gory violence, and up-front eroticism; however, what makes them so sought-after today is their technicolour cover illustrations, rendered by classically trained painters. Here is a further collection of those superb covers–a visual feast of outrageous pulp art.” (publisher’s blurb)
