Chris and Cindy hop the pond to the Hammer House of Franklin-Stein! They discuss another classic Hammer film starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, The Gorgon! A small European village is plagued by the curse of an ancient Grecian evil! Who has the stones to stop it?

Then from the Comic Crypt comes Hawkman #25 (May 1968) by Bob “Zany” Haney and Dick Dillin, where the Winged Wonder must contend with the city-destroying powers of a revived Medusa! The only problem is, she’s taken up vacancy in his wife’s body!
