Summary
The Best of EC Comics Artisan Edition collects 25 of the finest stories ever produced by the legendary comics company. Every page has been scanned from the original art in color—and while the art APPEARS to be in black and white, if you look closely, you will notice that blue pencil notations, ink gradients, corrections, duo-shade, and so much more is clearly visible—all the little nuances that makes original art so beautiful and unique.
The stories in this volume truly represent the very best of what EC published—Wally Wood’s My World, Al Williamson’s Food for Thought, Alex Toth’s Thunderjet, Joe Orlando’s Judgment Day, Harvey Kurtzman’s Corpse on the Imjin, Bernie Krigstein’s Master Race, Jack Davis’ Foul Play, and so many more classics of the form—truly the cream of the crop, the best of the best.
And in the groundbreaking Artist’s Edition style, readers will be able to experience them as never before!
Author Biography
Soon after arriving in New York, Wood began to find comics work with several small publishers before arriving at Avon Comics and EC Comics. It was at EC that he truly shone. In a lineup crammed with heavyweights, Wood distinguished himself as one of the absolute best. Wood, while still at EC, was one of the founding artists on MAD comics, where he continued to work after it became MAD Magazine. In the late 1950s, Wood produced many science-fiction covers and interiors for Galaxy magazine, illustrating such classic authors as Isaac Asimov, Philip K. Dick, Frederick Pohl, and many others.
In the 1960s, Wood enjoyed great demand, and worked for Marvel Comics and Warren Publishing, and co-created The T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents at Tower Comics. Additionally, he produced two weekly comic strips, Cannon and Sally Forth, for Military News and Overseas Weekly, as well as self-publishing the groundbreaking pro-zine, Witzend.
Wood continued to produce work in the 1970s but towards the end of the decade suffered from kidney failure and a stroke, the latter leading to vision loss in one eye. On November 2nd, 1981, after years of ill health, Wally Wood took his own life.
