E.C. FAN-ADDICT FANZINE NO. 7 NOW SHIPPING!

Attention EC Comics fans! The 7th issue of the EC FAN-ADDICT FANZINE is now shipping through various outlets, including the publisher, Fantagraphics (click the image on the sidebar of this page).

Since Roger Hill passed away in December 2023, I figured issue #6 would be the last, but I'm sure glad I was wrong. Every issue is always filled with great info on EC Comics and related historical material. If you're a fan of EC or horror comics in general, you owe it to yourself to try a copy if you haven't yet.

NOTE: This issue comes with a signed bookplate if you order it from Bud's Art Books.

EC FAN-ADDICT FANZINE NO. 6

Released by Fantagraphics back on July 16 is this, the sixth issue of Roger Hill and Grant Geissman's EC FAN-ADDICT FANZINE that began in 2004. Sadly, Mr. Hill passed away last December, but his legacy will live on in the books that he wrote and his contributions to this 'zine, where he added many items from his personal collection to share with EC fans everywhere. And this issue is no different -- it's packed with memorabilia, esoterica and minutia from the world's most legendary horror comic.

This has already sold out from the publisher! I got my copy through Amazon who must have a supply in their warehouse.

Tell me EC Comics aren't popular anymore!
