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

Weird Science (EC Comics) -The Covers

A full run of covers from the classic EC sci-fi comic Weird Science. Some really incredible illustration work by Al Feldstein here, but Wally Wood, I think, upstages him, offering up some of the best stuff he ever produced for these covers.
