The 10th March 1973 saw the first issue of Shiver and Shake
released on the newsstands in Great Britain. Like its stablemate
Whizzer and Chips, it was two comics in one, with Shiver mainly
consisting of horror-themed comedy strips. On the back page of the
comic, readers were treated to 'A crazy "Monster Piece" for you to
cut out and collect!', and thus the Creepy Creations were born!
That first gloriously gruesome entry from Ken Reid was titled 'The
One-Eyed Wonk of Wigan'. Readers were invited to send in their
sketches for further instalments. Winners would receive a pound
note for their work and see their creation brought to full-colour
life by various Shiver and Shake artists (mainly by Reid). The
Creepy Creations were a grand triumph. Seventy-nine appeared in
total, with further entries appearing in annuals and specials. The
success of this feature led to both the Wanted posters and
WorldWide Weirdies being created for Whoopee!.
