I had a wave of nostalgia when I saw this poster on Flicker.

• Dynamite Magazine – Count Morbida insert poster – by Arthur Friedman – 1976

I must have looked at that poster a million times when I was a child. Dynamite Magazine was sold through my school when I was a kid and I bought EVERY one of them for my entire grade school career. Here are a couple more issues that were dedicated to monsters.

• Dynamite Magazine Monster Poster – 1976

• Dynamite Issue 012 – Welcome to the Dynamite Monster Bash! with Count Morbida by Arthur Friedman

• Dynamite Issue 062 All in the Family – Monster Style! Daughter of Dracula Son of Kong Godzilla Jr. and more!

• Dynamite Issue 083 Count Morbida’s Monstrous Movie Quiz

I loved monsters when I was a kid and loved movies that scared me. That’s why I enjoyed Hotel Transylvania so much last year. It was one of my favorite children’s movies that I saw.

Seeing those old Dynamite covers featuring all my favorite monsters was so fun to me and made me want to go back in time and rescue those old magazines from my garbage bins.
