Number 2334: Chiwallies, not Chihuahuas!

 You know it’s a story from ACG when you get a beautiful girl and her handsome boyfriend mixed up in some supernatural doin's. This time the young couple (and the girl’s dad) are in the Amazon. The natives warn the expedition that they will go no further. It is the fear of winged killers called Chiwallies. I have heard some names before — but Chiwallies? — it makes me think of a breed of little dogs.

But no little dogs are as deadly as the Chiwallies. I would not want to put out a food dish for my pet and have a Chiwallie show up.

As with most ACG supernatural comics of this era, to no one’s surprise, love prevails over evil. “The Winged Terror,” with no author listed, but art credits going to George Wilhelms, is from Forbidden Worlds #15 (1953).
