ECandWarrenFan-migration

You're welcome. Glad I could be of some help. No, don't own the Saha book. Infact still working on my collection of the regular Warren mags (Creepy, Eerie, Vampi) before I work on the rarer stuff. I agree with the general thought out there that the idea behind the Saha book is quite bizarre and have no interest in obtaining it, even as a collector's item

Yes. It was also reprinted in color in the 32 page version published by Gemstone approx 10 years ago.

When going through the original art back years and years ago, Cochran discovered four extra issues of the picto-fiction magazines that were never published, one for each title. They were printed last year with the Picto-Fiction EC Library volumes. That's probably what you're thinking of. The only other "new" story I can think of is "An Eye For An Eye", which was the story cut out from Incredible Science Fiction 33 (which led to the infamous Judgement Day controversy that caused Gaines to quit comics), which was first published in the Horror Comics of the 1950's book, then later in the EC Library.

CommandD: I've been an obsessive EC fan for over 15 years. Even my parents were too young for the originals (I was born in 1982), but I started following the reprints when I was a kid and own quite a large collection of EC stuff. I don't know of any website, even wikipedia (I'm the one who wrote the wikipedia reprint history that was copies and pasted here), that has a complete checklist of the reprints. I can help you based on my own personal knowledge though. To my knowledge, here are the EC reprints that exist (except for the new EC Archives that are just coming out, not familiar with their exact publishing history since I'm not collecting them, having already owned pretty much everything EC). To save time I'm not gonna state what each issue reprints (as many have mixed stories from various titles), but can provide that info if need be. ==== Ballantine Books ---------------- (Books that reprinted various stories) Tales From the Crypt Tales of the Incredible (sci-fi) The Vault of Horror The Autumn People (Bradbury reprints) Tomorrow Midnight (Bradbury reprints) Mad Reprint Books ----------------- (Books reprinted Mad stories, published by both Ballantine and Signet) The Mad Reader (two different printings) Mad Strikes Back!
