Bonds25 Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 My loss is your gain though as I did pause long enough before returning it to take pics of IMO one of the most violent pre-code crime stories I have ever come across, "The Widow of Death"! Wow, that's some F**ked up S**t!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.tor Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I wonder how many other "examples" of this type of comic are out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I wonder how many other "examples" of this type of comic are out there? If you mean having extremely violent content. Shiverbones posted some panels of a guy that got his neck broke and was burned alive but couldn't die that were pretty gruesome from Strange Stories From Another World #2 IIRC.

*paull* Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 Publishing that story took some really poor taste on the publisher's part. I can't believe someone looked at those pages and said, "It's great! Let's print it." I don't support censorship, but I'm not going to defend bad taste either.

johnenock Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I'm always torn where to show these pre-code 50's DC books... they are so tame in comparison to the other books of the day(Thing1 16 for instance with numerous knife through neck panels, etc). The DC's just seem silver age to me. Anyway, a couple new pre-codes: From Clink for a lot under guide: Posted this in silver, but I suppose it belongs here. One of my favorites from this run: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnenock Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Thanks, guys. I am really starting to get into the DC's from this age, which is affecting my pre-code horror buying. Fortunately, it doesn't appear that everyone and their grandmothers collect these books, so I should have a good buying year...unless the new baby's diapers(Due in July) severely cut into my budget..
