Nov. 1965 - June 1972
In 1965, MAD clone Cracked debuted it's own monster mag, which was heavy on comic style art (by Cracked's stable of artists, including E.C. legend John Severin), but also featured some articles on monster movies, plus photos, games and cut-out goodies. Most of the material (including cover art) from FMO would be reused in '80s issues of Cracked Collectors' Edition (often sub-titled "Those Cracked Monsters") and Cracked Monster Party.

There were only 10 issues plus the annual? Any other history sources available for the magazine?
ReplyDeleteJust those 11 in this series.
ReplyDeleteCracked had later monster titles, like the ones mentioned above. Here's a huge Cracked covers gallery, with all of those issues.

If you Google "cracked", you'll get many sites that cover the history of Cracked and related titles.
