Grisly rites of Hitler's monster flesh stripper!
Holy crap, these look awesome!! I wish these magazines were still around!!!
I imagine that the cover story of the first one must have inspired the album title, Weasels Ripped My Flesh, by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention. Haha
I saw an episode of American Pickers a while ago where the guys found a big stash of original cover artwork from magazines like these. I forget if the person whose home they were "picking" was a relative of the artist, or what, but they bought quite a pile of them. I remember one showed some sort of Satanic ritual involving a biker gang and another where a blonde in a bikini was tied up and about to be branded with a swastika shaped iron by a bunch of Nazis. Seriously, if I was walkin' past a newsstand and that jumped out at me, I would buy one. :D
The ways of True Men! Fighting off flying squirrels, spearing octopi, knife fighting turtles. What happened?

On Pickers, did you notice the cover where the bikini-clad babes were offering shelter (and who knows what else) to two guys about to be trampled by a herd of moose?
I was looking for that one.
