.. except I had one Charlton Haunted Love, but that was more a mystery/horror, at least the one I had was. Never heard of this before. I need to check it out! 11 issues, 1973-1975. A person could easily go broke finding out about such oddball series... I had a sudden impulse to get a complete set of Hot Stuff Creepy Caves recently but luckily fought it off!

I bought a lot of Charltons when I was a kid. They had good distribution where I lived.

I'm watching The Vengeance of Fu Manchu (1967) starring Christopher Lee in the title role -- it's a terrible movie, by the way. Anyway, Lee's yellowface make up isn't so much offensive as just utterly ridiculous, and I got to wondering, has there ever been a movie with Fu Manchu in it where he was actually played by an Asian actor?

And the last one was in 1980.

Does Alex Toth's last name rhyme with both or moth?

Does Alex Toth's last name rhyme with both or moth? It rhymes with "both" (quotes added to keep this from devolving into an Abbott and Costello routine)

In Australian English "both" rhymes with "growth", while "moth" rhymes with "cloth".
