The VOH 30 does have the gruesome factor, plus I love the bit of humor on the back sign ("Stomach Upset?").

 

However, I'm partial to the VOH 31 (the man's face beaten to a pulp with a mallet as the blood and rain mix together in the street lit by a red lantern) - sublime yet stupendous.

 

I thought I was pretty familiar with EC, but I have never noticed that cover. You're right, it's great!

Just a beautiful book, it presents so well and has perfect pages too.

 

COT 18 is one of my Top Ten EC's (I have an OA page from the Feldstein story, I like it that much), hearty congratulations vk!

Great comic and cover -- the initial 3 Crypt of Terrors were all terrific. I like the way in which Johnny Craig illustrated himself (an aged vision) as the morgue's working stiff. :)

I didn't know that. I always thought he looked familiar. Thanks for the info.

It's really just my assumption, but given Craig drew it and the guy is a spitting image for Craig in that time period "aged up", I am pretty sure it's so. Edit to add a link to Johnny and his wife at one of the EC Christmas parties. :)

I just picked the latest copy of the EC FAN-ADDICT FANZINE issue 3 by Roger Hill long time EC fanatic. Its a fun read full of interesting articles about EC comics and artists. He sells them through ebay. I know this isn't a sales thread but I thought a lot of readers on this thread would be interested.

We have often recommended books and magazines about comics in the threads, which I think is a different matter than someone hawking their comics for sale.

New arrival, and what turns out to be an accurate grade from CGC - the front cover has that pedigree "pop", but there is some soiling/scuffing along the spine on the back cover, which brings the technical grade down.

 

OW-W pages, too. :cloud9:
