Vincent Price Presents #34

Written by Stan Yan, Art by Daniel Crosier, Cover by L.J. Dopp

What do Ronald Reagan, Jerry Fallwell and Bob Denver have in common? They’re all dead! What else do they have in common? Obscure comic artist Stan Yan drew zombified caricatures of them. Is there a connection? Stan doesn't think so, but the evidence—and the bodies—are stacking up, and Stan needs to figure out why, since he has also incidentally drawn one of himself for his business card. 24 page, full color comic.  General audiences.
