Corben's first published work was in WEIRDOM 13, published in April 1969, in comic book size (actually a bit smaller, about 5" X 8"). A lengthy full-issue 32-page story, dealing with a witch-burning trial and the Bubonic plague. It was reprinted by the same publisher as TALES FROM THE PLAGUE in 1971, in a size closer to a normal 7" X 10" comic book size, with a new cover. And I purchased it years back in the TALES FROM THE PLAGUE third edition published in 1986, in a larger 8" X 11" magazine size with a new wraparound painted cover by Corben, on heavier whiter-stock paper. and color cover. It actually reminds me of one of those "Chick-tracts", wih a very EC "shock" horror feel to it.
