EC ARCHIVES Saddle Justice

Collects the complete run of Saddle Justice, the very first EC title by Bill Gaines to break away from M.C. Gaine's Education Comics format! Long before the days of horror and sci-fi, but by many of the same creators. Digitally recolored using the original palette, featuring art by legendary comics talents Johnny Craig, Graham Ingels, Henry Kiefer, Stan Asch, and others! Daring sheriffs take on the meanest outlaws and brave the roughest terrain in this collection of classic western stories, advertised as "true and terrific." Gun-mad girl desperadoes carve out their own infamy in the wild west. Stories include "The Lady Who Rode With Death," "Colorado Rose," "Guns and Gold: Bullets for Nuggets," "The Lady Longrider," "Phantom Justice," "The Grinning Gun Girl: Killer with a Smile," "Faro Kate," "Montana Manhunt: Killer in the Dark," "Gun Mad Lil: Revenge Against the Road Agents" and much more. Original coloring by Marie Severin. #1 is mentioned in the anti-comics book Love and Death. #4 contains the first Graham Ingels artwork ever in an EC comic, and he continues with stories in issues #5-8. #4 has a biography of Johnny Craig, and Craig did the covers for issues #3 and 4. New 2020 Foreword by Eric Red, professional writer of westerns, horror and thriller films and books. Note: Issues #1 and 2 were Happy Houlihans; the title was changed again with #9 to Saddle Romances.
