"The Magigals Mystery"


 Lady magicians.  Aggressive geese.  A life size crystal skull (I'm looking at youse guys, Lucas and Spielberg). Walter Gibson makes a cameo.  Yep, all the stops pulled out as Gibson indulges in his passion for magic.  For me, the cover is odd and static.  After that great cover for "Dead Man's Chest" this one just falls flat.  The Shadow is rendered well but everything else feels soft and not very dangerous.  Through in the dreaded yellow background and it just doesn't... what am I saying?  After though wretched covers we were handed for the Elliott tales and some of the stuff that preceded it?  Thank you, George.  I'll take your lesser efforts over that stuff any day of the week!
