Huge horror comic fan here. I have to say, to me, ECs are the ultimate, nothing else can quite compare. The artwork and writing is just on a slightly higher level than any of their competitors. Still, some of the less well known 50s publishers like Avon, St John, Harvey, Comic Media (these ones had amazing Don Heck portrait covers) etc. are better than anything you're likely to find at a comic shop today.Like Wicked Lester, these days I mostly restrict myself to reprint collections (times are tough, and prices have exploded on GA horror over the last few years), but I will occasionally grab a low-mid grade comic or two at the right price. After the code, my interest in mainstream comics dwindles rapidly, but I loved some of DC's bronze age Gothic horror/romance titles as well, Dark Mansion of Forbidden Love, Secrets of Sinister House were the titles, great artwork from some of the greats. Later on, Alan Moore's Swamp Thing with Stephen Bisette/John Totleben artwork really opened up my eyes about what a horror comic could be. I was an 80s kid and this was one of the first comics I fell in love with, and later on one of the first comics i rediscovered after getting back into comics as an adult. Also have to mention Kirby's Etrigan the Demon! Not straight horror, but what an awesome character! Had the full run of that book years ago. Think I may have sold it. I'd like to familiarize myself more with the 70s horror comic magazines, Warren, Eerie Pubs etc, that stuff seems cool, but I'm pretty ignorant about most of it. It's pretty cheap to collect, which is a big plus. Also interested in some of the underground horror comics of the 70s. I have a well-worn copy of Two-Fisted Zombies by Rick and Tom Veitch, and it's great, would like to find more of that stuff. Here's a quick snapshot of some of my horror comics with cool covers. Myself and others have posted more photos over in the Hepcat's comic thread.[img]
Yep, Cyber - THAT's the stuff! Charton horror comics. Yes, rushed, printed badly, and spottily distributed; but with some real gems there by folks like Tom Sutton, Pat Boyette, Steve Ditko, Wayne Howard, Mike Zeck, Joe Staton, and Nick Cuti.With a Grit not found in DC and Marvel's stuff of the time.
Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would just toss this in here. Pre-Order for a long time coming of Eerie Pubs reprints from IDW. If this is anything like their other horror volumes this should be pretty cool.http://www.amazon.com/Worst-Eerie-Publications-Mike-Howlett/dp/1631401149/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1399593531&sr=1-2&keywords=eerie+publications.
I LOVE Charlton's horror comics! Those are the comics I grew up with. As a kid I was MUCH more interested in these comics than Marvel and DCs superheroes!
Here's a scan of another one of my oldest horror comics:
