Not sure why I had to have this.

I did not grow up in the fifties but I do not care. The fifties had the coolest comic books. Batman and Superman were still chugging, but they had a lot of competition with crime, mystery, love, and of course horror.

Then this little forgotten gem from a crime series that would become a New Trend to rock the world.

The cover is great for what it shows and does not show. You want to know what is turning out the lights, and the horror she is screaming at. The next issue of the series became the Crypt of Terror/Tales from the Crypt and the rest is history.

Aside from the Gaines file copies and a sole 9.0, this is the next best graded. Picked it up at the Boston Comic Con earlier this year and just came back from CGC. Thanks to Susan Cicconi and the restoration lab for the beautiful work she brought this book to.
