Trivia Question for an EC expert...

[jimbo_707]

There's a story in an EC comic, possibly Shock Suspenstories, about a trophy hunter who goes to Alaska to hunt and ends up being the quarry himself. Does anybody know the title of the story or what issue it appeared in? I couldn't locate it through a web search.

Shock SuspenStories #1? "The Rug" drawn by Graham Ingels?

May be another story similar to this one too. I will keep looking.

That sounds like a different story than the one I was thinking of! Maybe they used a similar idea more than once. It may not be Shocksuspenstories - that was a guess - but it's definitely EC.

Maybe 'The Trophy' from TftC #25?

Crime SuspenStories 13 "Murder The Lover!" by Jack Davis

 

I'll check the horror stories next.

I'm gonna go with Shock 3. I forget which story but the cover matches your description.

The Shock 3 story would be "Stumped" by Jack Davis with animal traps instead of shotguns.

I think this is the one.

"The Most Dangerous Game".... Oh wait, that's something else.

 

I wish I still had my Russ Cochran reprint sets!

Yes, I think that's it! The title sounds right. Thanks, guys.

Are you sure it wasn't the famous Dick Chaney issue of Crime SuspenStories?
