Halloween HeartBreak WEIRD THRILLERS "SandFlower of Venus"

Alien Worlds May  Have Potentially-Lethal Flora and Fauna...
...but every spacer knows the most dangerous creature in the Universe is...Man!
Or is it?
I take it back.
The most dangerous creature in the Universe is Woman!
This never-reprinted tale from Ziff-Davis' Weird Thrillers #1 (1951) was probably illustrated by a round-robin of Dan & Sy Barry, Murphy Anderson, and Frank Giacoia.
The writer is unknown, but may well be the editor, Jerry Siegel, who forever affected how pre-pubescent males thought of women with his creation of  Lois Lane, the nosy reporter who was always trying to either expose Superman's secret identity or trick the Man of Steel into marrying her!

Halloween HeartBreak / Tales Twice Told WEIRD TERROR "Satan's Love Call" & TALES OF VOODOO "Devil Power"

There's True Love...
...and then there's True Lust, usually directed by the Prince of Tempters...Satan!
But flawed humans can screw up The Devil's best-laid perfidious plans!
Written by Ken Fitch and illustrated by Don Heck, this pitch-perfect story from Comic Media's Weird Terror #11 (1954) was re-created with new art (but almost exactly the same script) in Eerie Publications' Tales of Voodoo V5N3 (1972) by illustrator Oscar Fraga!
It loses some of the lyricism in the retelling.
