I'm looking for a vintage 70s 3D Werewolf poster (Dynamite Magazine?)

Back in my middle school days, we used to get copies of Dynamite Magazine at school. Whoever edited Dynamite must have been a Monster Kid because they occasionally ran whole issues dedicated to monsters; they even published a Scholastic book on the topic that I still have. The puzzle section was hosted by a vampire called Count Morbida.

I remember having a really cool, pull out 3D poster of a werewolf that I'm pretty sure I got from Dynamite. It came with 3D glasses. I think they also did a King Kong 3D poster.

I'd just love to see that poster again. Its image is etched in my mind, but I'm having trouble finding it on the Internet. Does anybody here know what I'm talking about? Feel free to discuss Dynamite Magazine and its monster connection as well.

Issue #28 from 1976 had a King Kong poster and iron-on . . . I remember it like it was yesterday.

The first three of four years of that mag were indeed very monster-centric.

Wasn't there a 3-D werewolf poster done by Neal Adams?  I don't know if it was Dynamite or not.

I guess it was a Neal Adams Werewolf poster according to that link! Now I just need to find an image of it. Thanks for posting that King Kong 3D poster. That's pretty awesome. I miss Dynamite Magazine!

I used to read all kinds of magazines as a kid; Ranger Rick's, Electric Company (for the Spidey Super Stories), Highlights (they had Tintin strips!), etc. Dynamite was always my favorite.

I don't remember the Werewolf poster, but when I was 10 I got a Dracula 3D poster drawn by Neal Adams (from a school book fair of all places) which hung on my wall until that fateful summer at camp when my mother cleaned my room.  If I remember right Dracula looked like he did in Adams' Frankenstein-Dracula-Werewolf graphic novel (which I have the comic/33 1/3 record set of). 

I miss that poster.

The 3D Poster book is probably out there (I do not believe the poster was in an actual regular issue).....here is a guy that helped work on it.  Maybe he has a photo?

Here is the cover of the book:



It sounds as if Neil did all 6 posters in the book.

I seem to have confirmed that the Werewolf poster was included with issue #46 with Kate Jackson on the cover, but it's near impossible to find a copy that still has the poster inside. It was reprinted in the poster book mentioned above with 5 other Neal Adams 3-D posters. We'll find it!

Thanks for the help everyone. Memories like this really make life today more fun. Long live Dynamite!
