EC Classics

    (RCP, 1986)
™ and © 1986 William M. Gaines

Before Russ Cochran finally bit the bullet and reprinted all of EC’s comic book sized output from 1950-1956, he experimented with this magazine-sized collection that featured a reprinting of a different EC Comic book from the 1950s. Though the print quality was very high and the enlarged art reproduction enhanced the visual impact of the comic book stories, most of the public was disinterested, and soon this over-priced series was replaced with the smaller sized reprints on traditional comic book newsprint.
