- Yes, boils and ghouls! The best horror comics from the 50s and arguably the best horror comics ever... EC comics' Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror and The Haunt of Fear!
My favorite way to collect these titles is via 90s reprints, here I tell you why, but I mainly just talk EC Comics because I love 'em!
I had been collecting the "East Cost Comics" reprints (from1973) then I picked up the Gladstone & the Gemstone reprints as they came out. My favorite reprints were the complete Russ Cochran runs of all the titles that started in 1992, I never could afford the originals or the hard back reprints, except I splurged on the Picto-Fiction books not long ago. I also have the early MAD (issues 1-23 in 8 volumes) reprints and the CD-ROM Totally MAD! I love all of EC and would like to have the older pre-trend titles that didn't get reprinted in comic form someday, but I will have to get the archive additions for these.
Wonderful video! Gladstone's double-sized Tales From the Crypt #1 hooked me on all these reprints. Timeless stories and art, and refreshing change of pace from 90s superhero comics.
Love EC! Only have one hardcover book from the 80s, but treasure it and need to hunt down the rest!
Love EC as well, whenever I find some at a decent price, I just can't help it, I'm buying! As you could probably see in the video, I go for reprints though, original issues are up there in value and hard to find in good condition. As a matter of fact hardcover is the way to go, I suppose.
