fifties Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Both the Shock 13 and MM 12 have great stories in them. "Squeeze Play" illustrated by both Frazetta and Williamson, -script by both Gaines and Feldstein, terrific on both levels. "Shangri La" in MM 12, great horror yarn. badback83, KolmarAvenue, Albert Thurgood and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Drkegg Posted March 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2021 Took forever to finally get it in hand, but this new addition to my PCH collection has quickly become a cornerstone of the collection.

Popular Post Albert Thurgood Posted March 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2021 Seems like an age since I bought this but it finally arrived. This is the last in the EC "Weird..." range and the last pre-code EC SF book. This is a classic Frazetta cover, and this copy was in the best condition of any I have seen for sale so am very glad to get it! fifties, goldust40, Larryw7 and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That June 1955 cover date has to be the latest W/O the code seal of any comic book of the period. Most had the seal beginning with the March 1955 issues, but I think EC pushed it with one or two other titles for a month more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Thurgood Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Thanks! I was going to say "last pre-code" but didn't know if there would be another issued later in the same month. They certainly went out with a magnificent iconic Frazetta composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nic8612 Posted March 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) Pulled the trigger on this grail. Full spine split, but complete and the cover looks fantastic, all things considered.

Is he a salesman or is that a box of chocolates on the ground by the door? I’m sure if I had this book and read it I would have figured it out by now, but from just staring at the cover I have no clue. Can anyone enlighten? badback83 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I just looked at my copy; the second story, illustrated by Jack Kamin, is titled, "The Trap", and there's a panel showing this scene from a distance, like from an upper story window. It's a life insurance scam plot, and he ain't dead...YET, eh eh. badback83, Hutch88, Raze and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been a Misfits fan forever so the CoC19 cover has always been high on my list. I probably waited too long to finally pick one up but that’s the way it goes.
