Saving Grace October 1976
Jim Osborne collects several of his most gruesome comix and slaps them into this horrific read. Not for the squeamish. It is great to see the beautiful “Hollywood Tragedy, the Suicide of Lupe Velez” story (from Sleazy Scandals of the Silver Screen) printed full-size instead of digest-size. Though it contains a lot of reprinted material, I would still consider this Osborne’s greatest comic.
