Strange Mysteries features an eccentric mix of weird and strange tales from Ross Andru, Jon D'Agostino, Alvin C. Hollingeworth, Joe Orlando, Ed Goldfarb, Tont Tallaico, and Joe Kubert. I.W. Publishing became notorious for publishing unauthorized reprints of other company's comics, often with new covers. The numbering of most of the company's titles is misleading, often not starting at issue #1 and skipping issue numbers. Incredibly though, the company produced 118 separate titles, no mean achievement! Plus: the bonus issue Fantastic Tales featuring glorious horror tales from the fantastic A.C. Hollingsworth, Norman Nodel and Harry Lazarus. Collects Strange Mysteries #15-18 (1964), plus Fantastic Tales (1958).
