classic L.B. Cole spider cover (6/45) COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)
Suspense Comics #8 is already an instant classic for L.B. Cole's infamous cover art — with the comics legend using his wild "poster colors" to creepy effect as he let loose a monstrous spider onto the newsstands. (That's the mysterious Suspense regular Mr. Nobody lurking in the background.) Just as Cole's visionary work foreshadowed the psychedelic '60s, Suspense took the lead in creating the kind of tense psychological horror that would later lead to the classic pre-Code horror of the 1950s — while also featuring pioneering heroes, with this issue boasting a turn by the visionary crimefighting team of the Grey Mask and Dove!
