No, I'm getting ...

12 Warbows drumming
11 Warbows piping
10 Warbows a-leaping
9 Warbows dancing
8 Warbows a-milking
7 Warbows a-swimming
6 Warbows a-laying
5 Golden Warbows
4 calling Warbows
3 French Warbows
2 Turtle Warbows
And a Warbow in a pear tree.

My other Christmas present's going to be a copy of the Necronomicon, or as it's sometimes called, the Book of the Dead. I'll use it to learn how to cast spells and then I'll turn all those Warbows into life size ugly green flesh eating Zombies. Then I'll use them as biological weapons and unleash them at the next Republican National Convention.

See, I have this all planned out. You'll read about it in all the papers.

I have one. Iirc it doesn't actually let you do that. But I haven't read it in a while. Its mainly just a story about some guy on whatever kinda hallucinogenic they had available at the time seeing through other dimensions and communing with monsters on the way. It was an interesting read, but... I don't think most of it is true. Its more like the Bible if the Bible was a giant acid trip. Think Fear and Loathing without the comedy. Dude was eating poisonous spiders and shit and was saying "its the only way to see past the windows to the other realms." Or some such wording. He's basically tripping balls the whole time. Like I said, interesting read.

And using a prodigious amount of old-timey racial pejoratives on the way.

... hey, this thing might actually go over well at a Republican Convention.

I believe you're speaking of the Necronomicon as conceived by HP Lovecraft. I believe SD is referring to the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, AKA the Naturom Demento, from the Evil Dead series. Roughly translated - "Book of the Dead". Bound in human flesh and inked in blood, this ancient Sumerian text contained bizarre burial rights, funerary incantations, and demon resurrection passages.

Important distinction.
One was penned by the mad Abdul Alhazred and is a horrific tome of cosmic evil.
The other makes Bruce Campbell do Three Stooges stuff.
 
Nothing is more embarrassing than having a bunch of warlocks and demons over and you pull the wrong Necronomicon off the book shelf and you start doing eye-pokes and slapping your own face instead of burning the flesh off of someone's body. I know we've all been there.

If only he had recited the incantation correctly ...

Precisely.

Fun fact: The Necronomicon has shown up in Marvel Comics. It's true! Click here.

The Necronomicon from H.P. Lovecraft's stories and the Cthulhu Mythos is the mystical equivalent of Marvel's Darkhold, though it has been stated that the Necronomicon was derived from a small part of lore from the Shiatra Book of the Damned, another name of the Darkhold and also that both were imperfect copies of the ancient writings etched on the walls of R'llyeh, who had been produced by ancient being later confirmed to be the Great Old Ones.

This is a three part story that adapted the works of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert Bloch and uses the Necronomnicon.

I was going to use these covers in the Halloween thread I got going on in the Comic Book Talk forum. Hmmm. Maybe I'll do that now.
 
Hmm. I didn't know there were 2. Thats interesting. The one I have does feel Lovecraftian. I got it years ago. Don't even remember where. I've had it for like 2 decades lol. Also don't remember Cthulu being in it but again, its been so long since I read it.

Some pics of Werewolf by Night and Phantom Rider: https://marvelousnews.com/79-37754

The colors on these two together are really working for me. They both look like solid, if typical ML offerings. I would have preferred baggy pants on the Rider and a new upper body with butterflies and proper torso articulation for Jack, but this will do. Still loving Jack's big scruffy beard.
