EC ARCHIVES Tales From the Crypt Volume 3

Horror, murder, and the supernatural, 24 classic stories written by Al Feldstein and illustrated by Jack Davis, Graham Ingels, Jack Kamen, George Evans, and  Joe Orlando. Includes Al Williamson’s first story at EC which was used in Parade of Pleasure. Classic covers abound, all by Jack Davis, with decapitation, being nailed live into a coffin, a beautiful circus star squished by an elephant, Frankenstein, and, of course, the undead in many forms! This is a prime run for Crypt, as the creators were at their peak, with innovative, wild stories in every issue. Jack Kamen, Feldstein and Gaines all appear in a story, while Johnny Craig and Jack Davis draw themselves! Ray Bradbury adaptation in #34. Also available in hardcover. The other hardcovers are currently out of print but we hope we’ll see the others in new editions. This volume includes the original stories, plus original house ads, text pieces, and letters. “EC was stunning, a caliber we had never seen before.”  – Bob Overstreet, from his introduction.
