Blackstone Copy"This is one of the top 10 Pre-Code Horror Covers ever drawn!" according to ComicConnect President Vincent Zurzolo. It's pretty easy to see why this is one of the most revered covers of the pre-code era when horror was one of the top genres in the comic book industry following the end of WWII and the subsequent demand for something besides superhero comics. Bill Everett’s disturbing cover design is hard to forget once you've seen it, it certainly leaves an impression. Everett not only designed this classic cover, but he also illustrated and wrote almost all of the content of this comic, with some editorial assistance from Stan Lee. This is one of those comics that PCH fans duke it out over each time a copy comes up for auction, which is not very frequently, which makes it a real event when a Venus #19 turns up for sale. “The Kiss of Death!” is, without question, one of the all-time classic horror covers in the history of comics.Overstreet Guide 2021 FN- (5.5) value = $1,488
