Popular Post OtherEric Posted October 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2018 Was talking to a friend about Ray Bradbury a few days ago; since it was on my mind I decided to pull this one out. My all-time favorite Bradbury story (the original, as well as the adaptation); my all time favorite EC story, and one of my top 5 or so all time favorite comic stories. I've had this book for around 25 years now; it was one of 3 EC's in my collection to survive a "I need to pay rent" sale. (Life got better, I'm back up to around 60 EC's.)

Raze Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hello again you EC addicts! Since this is not a Horror book i won't be attempting my usual attempt at horror humor, but I thought id give a review while i read through. I started reading this book without any prior knowledge of anything inside, i like going into movies, books, comics etc etc blind. it makes for a more fun experience. so with that said here is Weird Fantasy 14! The Exile WOW!!! I saw the ending coming all the way.......... until the twist I didn't see!!! and of course its Wally Wood art! definitely 1 of my all time favorite EC stories! The expert, now this little tale was FUN-NY!! I loved it and want more! Joe Orlandos art was very MAD like. The Ad, first thing that caught my eye was the pic of the vault keeper which made me smile and then the hijinks start and this one didn't fail! Close Call,Jack Kamen is BY far one of the best artist when it comes to women and men! Only Matt Baker rivals him in my opinion. Also another great story!!! watch for what you wish for ladies!!! Mad Journey, OK I think this story just sealed the deal for making it in my top 5 EC books...what a great story about "insanity"!! Until next time...

D Stuart Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Putting out some feelers for a low grade Crime Patrol 16. Preferably beat but complete. Open to restored/married copies as well. Shoot me a message if you've got a spare or an under-copy floating around. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robot Man Posted November 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2018 Mailman brought me a real pretty one today. The colors on this are very intense. I can’t recommend the war ECs enough. Outstanding stories and art. Still way to cheap in my opinion!

originalisbest Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 FC #7 is a great EC cover -- continuing to the bump of the EC thread with some cross posting from the recent PCH thread. For a long time, I wanted a copy of WS #16 before I got this from Vincent (when he was Vincent's Collectibles) in 1998. :-) Larryw7, Raze and KirbyJack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 If I had to pick one cover to represent 1950s sci-fi comics, WS 16 might be my choice. 1950's war comics, originalisbest and Larryw7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I was never (still not to an extent) into the EC war issues, I do love TFT #34, due to first discovering it as an East Coast Comix reprint, back around 1985 or so. I then made it a point to get an original copy a few years later. While not super into the war ECs generally, I don't mind getting them for particularly noteworthy stories or covers -- for me, the Horror, Sci-Fi, Crime and SHOCK are my mainstay EC loves. Plus a little Valor and Piracy. KirbyJack and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
