So happy to get a collection of the comics I grew up with and can now enjoy once again. I get to re-live those years all over again. Yay.

3.0 out of 5 stars Average But Getting Better

After devouring the latest archive of Eerie, if I could use baseball terms, there's some solid singles and some just miss foul balls which keep this latest edition average at best. I have been spoiled with the material from the last two Creepy archives editions and when you compare the artwork and storytelling between the two, you'll understand. There are 4 issues in Eerie #6. I was not impressed by the cover but after reviewing all the cover art, Dark Horse did make the right decision as Ken Kelley had the most realistic art. I would estimate that of the stories, you could say 60% is horror, 30% Science Fiction and 10% fantasy stories. Some of the Sci-Fi easily turns to horror. Two good stories in this vein are "Point of View" by Tom Sutton and written by Buddy Saunders and "The Oasis" written by Buddy Saunders and drawn by Carlos Garzon. In the former, it was a good concept to script and draw a story with two differing viewpoints side by side. In the latter, sometimes in war, things happen that affect both sides. Sword & Sorcery fans will enjoy "The Vorpal Sword" by Tom Sutton and Nick Cuti. There are two stories in this archive detailing the exploits of occult investigator October Weir. This is thinking man's horror. There are a couple of good, traditional horror stories such as "The Entail" by Pat Boyett and "The Killer Slime" by Carlos Garzon and Steve Skeates. I enjoyed the interview with writer Doug Moench. This was the period of Eerie when they got past the reprints and were putting out new ideas but not hitting solidly just yet on all levels. Seeing the quality of the later Creepy Archives gives me hope that future Eerie archive quality will rise up as well.

This collection cuts us short by one issue instead of 5 we get 4. Still EERIE is not
as good as CREEPY but will soon kick into high gear when the series of characters start like
SPOOK.Most of the art is very good and when the Spanish artist come into play they are just great.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very satisfying
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2011

This installment of the Eerie Archives took me months to finish, due to the fact that the stories were so uninteresting and poorly executed. It's not so much the art, which runs from workmanlike to sturdy, it's the writing in these minor issues which were really around the level of high school fanzine quality. Heck, I've seen high school fanzines with BETTER stories than these. As far as I can tell, this was really the nadir of Eerie's quality. Still a fan of the fine reproduction from Dark Horse, but it's lavished on some really middling material.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cousin Eerie and the Barbarians
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2023
In Volume 6 of the "Eerie Archives" good ol' Cousin Eerie is still introducing the stories. But things have changed. Although we do get a werewolf story, a mummy story, and Frankenstein-inspired story, fewer of the classic monsters are represented. We're also seeing fewer contributions by the comic book greats who graced the earlier volumes. While Eerie was still publishing horror stories, the emphasis at this time seems to have shifted to science-fiction and sword and sorcery tales featuring over-muscled barbarians.

Most of the stories collected here are mediocre, although there are a few stand-outs. In the barbarian sweepstakes, "The Beast in the Swamp" is the most notable. Although it has a fairly routine story by Bill Warren the over-the-top artwork by Billy Graham makes it something of a classic of the genre. Our hero Sorik battles all sorts of monsters and in-between his battles he enjoys a hero's reward with the unforgettable Y'Bane. Sorik wears little more than a thong--calling it a loin cloth would be generous--and Y'Bane's pendulous breasts are kept aloft by a sort of metallic crop top bralette. Billy Graham clearly let himself go when drawing these characters.

Another notable story in the sword and sorcery vein is "The Bloodstaff," with story and art by Rich Buckler, in what must be one of his earliest published works. The always brilliant Jerry Grandenetti contributes a psychological horror story, "In Close Pursuit," scripted by Gordon Matthews. Of the stories featuring classic monsters, the best is "The Creation" (script by Douglas Moench, art by Carlos Garzon). The story is a variation of the classic tale of a mad scientist in need of a brain for his creation. We've seen this story unfold many times before in many different media. But Moench gives it his own clever little twist. The werewolf story, "I, Werewolf," (story and art by Ken Barr) also features a vampire and is a fun little monster rally.

This volume features an interview with Doug Moench discussing his years at Warren, The letters pages from the respective Eerie magazines collected here are also included in this volume, as well as those wonderful ads that used to run in the Warren mags. Did anyone ever really order the live, baby, squirrel monkey? The ad reassures you that it will be "no problem caring for or feeding your monkey." Somehow the idea that people were selling live monkeys to kids over the mail is scarier than any of the stories in Volume 6 of the "Eerie Archives."

4.0 out of 5 stars Not quite classic but a lot of great art and a few good stories

Eerie up until now was a second rate Creepy, not until the next few issues would it find its place with on going series such an The Demons of Jeremiah Pan and Freaks...
Corben, Kelly, are still honing their crafts. And Wrightson, Moroto, Sanjulian, and company are waiting in the wings but when they arrive boy will they make an impression!!
The four covers say a lot ...
The first a mediocre painting that has no shadow or depth, but the inside story by the same artist is well drawn and has a great ending. The second by Ken Kelly, not his best an early effort but man he was getting good at anatomy!
The third By Basil Gogos is great! Whatever happened to this guy? I love this cover the best of the four. The fourth by Richard Corben, the foreground and characters and background bursting with "Corben" color. This guy would become the premier star of their color stories and with good reason!
You can see a progression from mediocre to great in the covers alone.
The insides are at times excellent with mainly American artists and writers including doug Moench who pens his first and easily the dumbest story of the lot in the "Abominable Snowman", is interviewed and it is a good interview. j. The Spanish art easily outshines most of the rest and that is why I guess Warren started using mostly them, and am I glad he did!
Phillipe Druillet (of Heavy Metal fame)is featured in the fanpages, too basd Warren didn't snag him when they had the chance.
Bill Dubay (later editor) writes and pens two efforts, and they are among the best.
