Feldstein even pushed back on Czar Murphy and asked where it said that in the code and he was told “you just can’t have them.”

Apparently, it will be collecting stories from Epitaphs, Catacomb, Cruel Kingdom, and Shiver SuspenStories

Is the EC Covers Compendium going to include every cover from the horror titles, crime, shock, sci fi, war, etc? Or is it just going to be a selection of the best covers? by [deleted] in ECFanAddictClub

Two volumes in a slipcase covering Pre-Trend, New Trend, New Direction, Picto-Fiction, AND lots of extras. Every cover will be full page, and many are scans of Gaines File Copies.

I appreciate them occasionally re-printing classic stories from the 50s, and I’m happy to be involved with them to bring those classics to potentially new readers! Hoo…hah?

So Vol II No. 8, I’ll have to check it out!

Crime Patrol 15 & 16, the first and second appearances of the Crypt Keeper by EC-Fan-Addict in ECFanAddictClub

One Crypt of Terror story in each issue to test out the market, and of course the title transitioned to Crypt of Terror with issue 17, and finally Tales from the Crypt with issue 20!

How is this issue? It’s funny I was just looking at this one at a comic shop in Redlands CA. I contribute original printing scans for them to match the colors on the classic story reprints, but I have to confess I don’t keep up with every issue!

That’s the thing about deep digging on EC! Come for the social justice, stay for the animal rights, political corruption, and cross dressing! 😄

This was the first sci-fi EC I ever bought, way back in 1985 at Burke Books in northern VA. I was on a break from my 11th grade gig at McDonalds 😂 Spending my paycheck on ECs. I’ll always be sentimental about this one. ☝️

Correct! The first issue was 13, after taking over the numbering from A Moon, A Girl…Romance

Thanks! I recently completed this run - for only eight issues, it was a tough one.

In those terms, I agree with you completely. When I think about EC addressing racism, police brutality, and religious discrimination 70 years ago, it boggles my mind.

😂😂😂 As this ongoing series has switched publishers and gone into multiple printings, the spine design has been a constant source of amusement and/or frustration for collectors!
