jimjum12 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm not recalling an EC Thread lately. I'm sure one has been started at some time or another..... but it just seems odd that in a GA Forum of this depth that there is no dedicated thread to possibly the best comics ever made. Maybe their day has come and gone..... but that shouldn't be. If anyone wants a spot to critique issues, genres, point out auction tips, etc....... I for one will be all ears. GOD BLESS.... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Raze and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BitterOldMan Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 My favorite cover. Pales in comparison to MrBedrock's Gaines File copy. OA from my favorite story, "Precious Years" drawn by Wally Wood from WS19. Just had this scan handy and tribute to the late Al Feldstein.

Jayman Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I always thought Wood captured the perfect balance of sci fi and horror on this cover! The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitterOldMan Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I always thought Wood captured the perfect balance of sci fi and horror on this cover! I have three copies of this issue, since it contains "Precious Years." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 .....NICE ..... That Gaines Gang really knocked 'em out of the park..... and Wood was so motivated to greatness. You can look at a Wood cover for hours..... he's like the Alex Schomburg of the Atomic Age .....

Jayman Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's been stated before that most fans agree that the writing in the science fiction line was the best. This issue stands out for the great "A Sound of Thunder" story. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjpb Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 EC has so many fantastic covers ( with equally fantastic interiors), that have been reprinted in so many formats, and are not that scarce in the original because they were they've been fan favorites for decades, that I think we take them for granted sometimes. I've only got a few of my favorite CSS covers, but threads like these remind me of how many of these would be highly sought after "classic covers" if they were from another publisher.

cheetah Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) I don't think I've spammed a thread in GA in a couple of months. I also don't think I ever posted my full run of this lovely title.

BitterOldMan Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 In James Halperin's collection, splash from "Food for Thought" by Al Williamson and Roy Krenkel from Incredible Science Fiction 32 is on my list of greatest splash pages of all time. The inking is among the best that I have ever seen. WolverineX, jimjum12 and The Lions Den 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjum12 Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 The HOF 12 I just got is an OSPG "Classic Cover" ... but CGC doesn't put it on the label ..... heck, more EC's are probably classic than not....
