Entertaining Comics, more commonly known as EC Comics, was an American publisher of comic books specializing in horror fiction, crime fiction, satire, military fiction and science fiction from the 1940s through the mid-1950s, notably the Tale from the Crypt series.

EC Comics is arguably the finest line of comics ever produced. Whether it was science fiction or war, crime or horror, their entire line stood head and shoulders above the rest of the comics on the newsstands. Now IDW Publishing is pleased to present an Artist's Edition unlike any other, featuring the best stories by the brightest stars of EC Comics.
Road to Perdition author Max Allan Collins re-introduces us to the thrilling and mysterious first volume of Crime SuspenStories - six full issues and 24 complete stories by the likes of Al Feldstein, Johnny Craig, Harvey Kurtzman.
The hauntingly spectacular artwork
by legendary comic artists such as Johnny Craig, Wally Wood, Jack Kamen,
Graham Ingels, Jack Davis, Feldstein, and Kurtzman has been fully
restored in this first volume of The Haunt of Fear, which reprints the first six issues, twenty-four stories orinally published in 1950 and 1951.
This second beautiful hardcover volume of Shock SuspenStories reprints issues #7-12, featuring 24 stories in all by an all-star line-up that includes Bill Gaines, Al Feldstein, Wally Wood, Joe Orlando, Reed Crandall, Al Williamson, Jack Kamen, George Evans, John Severin, Bill Elder, Jack Davis, Johnny Craig, and Marie Severin.
From stories by the legendary team of Bill Gaines and Al Feldstein come the classic horror tales written by Feldstein and illustrated by the all-star line-up of Wally Wood, Jack Kamen, Johnny Craig, Feldstein himself, Joe Orlando, Graham Ingels, Jack Davis, and Marie Severin.

The second volume of Weird Science features classic stories written by Al Feldstein, and illustrated by such master artists as Wally Wood, Joe Orlando, Jack Kamen, Harvey Kurtzman and Feldstein himself.
"50 Girls 50..." compiles all of Al Williamson's work for EC's "New Trend" comics (not just Weird Science and Weird Fantasy, but also his less-known crime and horror stories), including two classic Ray Bradbury adaptations.
From the legendary Wally Wood, Fantagraphics proudly presents one of two premiere releases in our highly-anticipated new EC reprint line. Ranging from supernatural shockers from the Tales from the Crypt and The Haunt of Fear to pointedly contemporary crime thrillers from Crime SuspenStories, these compelling and superbly crafted classics will be accompanied by extensive essays and notes on these historic stories by EC experts.
Al Feldstein is best known as the main writer/editor of the EC comics line during the first half of the 1950s-and then the editor of Mad Magazine for the first three decades of its existence.
But what many don't know or remember is that Feldstein was also an accomplished and distinctive cartoonist, whose comics (which he both wrote and drew, a relative rarity in those days) adorned the pages of many of those selfsame EC comics.
MAD would have been enough to cement Harvey Kurtzman's reputation as one of the titans of American comics, but he also created two other landmarks: the scrupulously-researched and superbly-crafted war comics Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat.
Surrounded by the ornate, retro, proto-splatter horror graphics of Jack Davis and Graham Ingels and the slick, futuristic sci-fi stylings of Wally Wood and Al Williamson, EC Comics superstar Johnny Craig stood out with his elegant, crisp, contemporary graphic style. And nowhere did this style work more beautifully than in the dozens of superb crime comics he wrote and drew for EC, mostly in Crime SuspenStories (for which he handled the cover and lead-story duties for most of its run).
Fantagraphics is presenting classic EC material in reader-friendly, artist-and-genre-centric packages and "'Taint the Meat..." collects every one of Jack Davis' 24 Tales From The Crypt stories in one convenient, goredrenched package for the first time. "'Taint the Meat..." will also include extensive story notes by the acclaimed painter and cartoonist William Stout.
