Skywald’s first publication was Nightmare #1 (December 1970). a black-and-white comic magazine absolutely packed full of horror – The Pollution Monsters, Master of the Dead, Dance Macabre, Orgy of Blood, A Nightmare Pin-Up, The Skeletons of Doom, Help Us to Die, The Thing from the Sea, The Creature Within, and The Deadly Mark of the Beast – all created by the ghoulishly imaginative talents of Don Heck, Norman Nodel, Jack Katz, Bill Everett, Ross Andru, Wally Wood, Mike Esposito, Joe Kubert, and Syd Shores.
