I can't comprehend how Warren's CREEPY magazine never published a version of "Metzengerstein", when something like this was out there. No wonder they wound up going under by the mid-80s.
Thank you so much for posting this, and with such decent scans!
L'immagine del volto del giovane che sta per essere accoltellato a pag. 70 è presa paro paro dal "Sacrificio di Isacco" del Caravaggio. Noto che gli stili di Alarico Gattia e Sergio Toppi (tratto, costruzione della vignetta, tratteggio a "ricciolo") sono molto simili: è stato Gattia ad influenzare il più giovane Toppi o si sono influenzati a vicenda?
As I've been working on my POE blog project, I keep running across influences; either where comics artists have swiped from other artists, or where things that originated in the comics have turned up verbatim in later movies.
Here's an instance from 1947 where artist August Froelich swiped a panel from a 1944 Fritz Eichenberg illustration of the same story.

Fascinating.
