Great group of books! I can't imagine how cool it must have been to go to the newstand back in the day and see all the great EC books just waiting to be read.

 

I have this picture in my head of the EC bullpen all sitting around trying to outdo each other with covers that pushed the envelope Of course, what we love so much about them today is what eventually caused their downfall.
