MY EC COMICS HISTORY


Inside the just released CASTLE OF FRANKENSTEIN #41 (Spring 2025) is my latest article "Ten-Cent Terrors! The Horrifying History of EC Comics". It runs 15 pages and 9,000 words. As with much of the rest of my writing, I could have probably turned in twice that, but Don Smeraldi's editorial restrictions prevailed! Wife Vicki again did a fabulous job with the layout as with the rest of the content.

There's much more to offer in this issue: "Henry Frankenstein: In His Own Words" by Frank Dello Stritto, "Tandra Quinn: Web of the Spider Woman" by Tom Weaver, "The 88 Edits of Sinbad" by filmmaker Larry Blamire, profiles of Lionel Atwill and Peter Coe, and a lot more within its 132 pages. And that cover by Scott Jackson is a stunner!


You may be able to find a copy at Barnes & Noble, Books A Million or your favorite comic shop, but Diamond Distributors' collapse has limited brick and mortar circulation for the time being. The best way to get a copy is to order it directly right HERE.

  1. Love that cover. Sometimes editors are our best friend, and sometimes not.
