A top 5 Woody cover for me. Just iconic. This is one I'd replace pretty quick if it were me though. This one is all about the color. I'm sure you have that in mind anyway. Here is one of Gary Arlington's old copies. The colors really pop and makes the mood so intense. I'm not necessarily a high grade guy. but I'm on the hunt for a higher grade on this one.

KirbyJack Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Sooo cool. I think if I had to define 1950s science fiction with one image, this might be it. I love that giant Studebaker of a space ship! Raze and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disagreement, although I actually kind of like the subdued colors on mine as well. I'll probably keep it even if I do get an upgrade someday.

OtherEric Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 And Weird Science-Fantasy #23 arrived today. This actually gives me the complete WS-F run, so I'll do the customary post the whole run thing I do when I complete a set. For this purpose I'm considering Incredible SF a separate run, although I sympathize if you consider it one title. I finished that run off a while ago, though: Raze, KirbyJack, Larryw7 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Is it true that E.C. was planning a fourth horror title toward the end? Re starting Crypt of Terror? I'm thinking maybe Drusilla was introduced to host it: Four titles, four stories per book, four hosts, made sense. But then, she was hanging with the Vault Keeper. She'd need to be a Crypt dweller to host COT. I'm obviously thinking out loud here. Haven't even looked to see if the dates line up. Never mind me.

Tales from the crypt # 46 the last issue has the stories for the scheduled Crypt of Terror # 1, but all the Horror titles were canceled with the new Comics Code.

fifties Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Here's the front splash page in the above issue, regarding bringing a fourth title. AFA Drusilla, she was supposed to be a hostess in the Vault of Horror. Here's the splash in Vault 38. KirbyJack, Raze and Larryw7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
