Reed Crandall and Ray Bradbury - The October Game
Reed Crandall's graphic adaptation of Ray Bradbury's eminently creepy short story The October Game appeared in Vol. 1 #9 of EC Comics now legendary (but tragically short lived) Shock Suspenstories in 1953. EC Comics were consistently producing a caliber of graphic work in the comics medium that totally unheard of at that time. EC comics are often defined by their wordy/text centric layout with large blocks of text at the top of each panel, something here that works excellently to showcase the words of Ray Bradbury

The art for this story is by Jack Kamen, not Reed Crandall, by the way.
