Lizzie Borden and Creepy Comic Book

creepy21lizzie

A Very Creepy Blog (yes, that is the name) posted on September 2 that a comic book called “Creepy” once published a Lizzie Borden story called “Reasonable Doubt.”

As far as I can tell, the issue was published July 1967. There are lots of copies out there on the Internets—so you are bound to be able to pick one up inexpensively.

Fourth is “A Reasonable Doubt” by Tony Williamsune (art) and Ron Parker (story). A man rescues a girl, Elizabeth, who is pursued by a mob. She tells him that they accused her of being a witch after her parent’s deaths. She tells him of her past and they head to a cabin in the woods. It is only there that he discovers the truth, that she’s Lizzie Borden, who quickly comes after him with a hatchet!

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
