Eerie #41 (aug1972) 76 Illustrated Pages of Terror and Suspense

B&W Illustrations; This is an oversized paperback magazine with illustrated covers and a stapled spine. The book is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. There is some light bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners of the covers. The text pages are clean and bright, though a bit toned. ""Dax the Warrior" (a. K. A. , "Dax the Damned") is often given credit as being EERIE's first serial, but that honor actually goes to the short-lived "Prince Targo" (who was Warren's rip-off of Aquaman) , whose first story premiered two issues earlier (in EERIE #37). "Dax the Warrior" was EERIE's second series and it lasted longer than every other Warren serial other than those belonging to the company's stalwarts Vampirella, Pantha, and the Rook. Dax is quite possibly one of Warren's most recognizable characters, and the first part of the series ran for a time when almost no other series was appearing in EERIE, dating back to 1971. It was largely Dax's success that encouraged the Warren staff to eventually experiment with other continuing serials in EERIE, ultimately transforming the title into a magazine featuring continuing serials rather than stand-alone stories, thus paving the way for the creation of the Warrenverse.
