Tales from the Crypt The Official Archives (Pricey Edition) Limited to 500 Hardcover. ?Stripped Flesh? mottled red edition. National Public Radio commentator Diehl recounts the history of Tales from the Crypt, which has scared horror fans through comics, television, and movies for 40 years. Tales from the Crypt Official Archives limited edition hardcover centers on four special sections, each of which is worth the price of the whole book: there are biographies of 13 artists from the E. C. stable; glossy, full-color covers for all 105 E. C. horror comics; 4 beautifully reproduced, complete tales in their original form (on creamy white paper stock); and a never-before-seen "Picto-Fiction" story from E. C.'s heyday, illustrated by Jack Davis. All of this and more has been lovingly put together by literary correspondent and columnist, Digby Diehl. Tales From The Crypt: The Official Archives by Digby Diehl as published by St.Martin's Press and Hamilton Comics Ltd, 1996. This is one of the limited signed hardcover editions published by Bruce Hamilton's Hamilton Comics Ltd, with a signed bookplate inside the front cover. This ? Stripped Flesh? mottled red edition is signed by seven of the original EC Comics artists and writers; Jack Davis, Joe Orlando, Johnny Craig, Al Feldstein, Al Williamson, Marie Severin, and George Evans. While St.Martin's Press published the hardcover trade editions and softcover editions, Bruce Hamilton had the rights to publish the limited edition versions. With the interior pages and contents being exactly the same, Hamilton Comics published four different; ?Pricey Editions?, each one limited and with different colored covers. Each of the four colored editions had EC ghoulish-names attached to them: 1. This Red cover version was called ?Stripped Flesh? mottled red. 2. The green cover version was called ?Swamp water Slime mottled green. 3. The Brown cover version was called ?Rotting Corpse" mottled brown. 4. The off white cover version was called ?Bleached Bones? Each of the 500 copies (the copies were not individually numbered) was bound in gold foil stamped, glossy Skivertex (which is much more durable than the trade edition?s chipboard and paper binding) and printed in full color on off white slick paper. Each of ?Pricey Edition?, "colored", limited editions contains a special bookplate inside the front cover. The bookplate is Hand-Signed by seven of the original EC Comics artists and writers; Jack Davis, Joe Orlando, Johnny Craig, Al Feldstein, Al Williamson, Marie Severin, and George Evans. This book is not strictly about the television show, as a matter of fact, it's 75-80% about the history of EC Comics, the trials and tribulations of Bill Gaines and the US Senate hearings, the fan publications and reprints that lead to EC Comic's resurgence, and finally how all this lead to Hollywood and the TV series and several motion pictures. Features incudes: the official biography of the Crypt Keeper and the history of EC Horror Comics, a previously unpublished picto-fiction horror story drawn by Jack Davis, all 105 EC Horror Comic covers reproduced in full- color, a pictorial "filmography" of the award-winning HBO and Fox Television series featuring credits, synopses, and episode guide, four original (and complete) stories by Jack Davis, Al Feldstein, Graham Ingels, and Jack Kamen reprinted from the actual art and reproduced in color in their original size, brief biographies and portfolios of the key EC artists, collectible section highlighting the coolest and most valuable Crypt merchandise.

EC Covers Portfolio Artist’s Edition. From IDW Publishing. The EC Covers Artist’s Edition Portfolio is available only from IDW Publishing and features 8 classic EC Covers, each one printed on heavy stock and printed to the same exacting standards as all Artist’s Editions: Crime Suspenstories #22 by Johnny Craig; Tales from the Crypt #46 by Jack Davis; Weird Fantasy #15 by Al Feldstein; Weird Science-Fantasy #29 by Frank Frazetta; Haunt of Fear #20 by Graham Ingels; Two-Fisted Tales #25 by Harvey Kurtzman; Weird Fantasy #21 by Al Williamson and Frank Frazetta; and Incredible Science Fiction #33 by Wally Wood. IDW Publishing, January 08, 2014 15″ x 22″, 8 plates ISBN 827714006186 $50 USD Order online: eBay. As with all AE format material (Artist’s Editions, Artifact Editions, Gallery Editions, Art Editions, Studio Editions, etc), this is a collection of classic comic material and I’ll be reviewing the book and not the story. For a complete list of all current and announced editions, with review links, please visit our Index. Also, see What is an Artist’s Edition and our Artist Index. This is an odd collection of material that doesn’t fit any IDW template of Artist’s Edition material. All other portfolios published were material not appearing in an Artist’s Edition, yet this portfolio includes material that appeared in various Artist’s Editions, before and after. In Best Of EC: Artist’s Edition, Volume One: Crime Suspenstories #22 by Johnny Craig, Weird Fantasy #15 by Al Feldstein, Weird Science- Fantasy #29 by Frank Frazetta. In Best Of EC: Artist’s Edition, Volume Two: Weird Fantasy #21 by Al Williamson and Frank Frazetta, Two- Fisted Tales #25 by Harvey Kurtzman. In Wally Wood’s EC Stories: Artist’s Edition: Incredible Science Fiction #33 by Wally Wood. In Graham Ingels’ EC Stories Artist’s Edition: Haunt of Fear #20 by Graham Ingels. In Jack Davis’ EC Stories Artist’s Edition: Tales from the Crypt #46 by Jack Davis. Three of these were published before this portfolio, and three followed it. Plus, six of these eight images have been used as covers for Artist’s Editions. As well the colophon lists this work as EC Covers Portfolio Artist’s Edition, yet the cover states EC The Covers Artist’s Edition Portfolio. The back of each plate states “THIS IS NOT ORIGINAL ART”. Always appreciated. As is the Table Of Contents on the left side, allowing you to see the contents in print and peruse the plates. Dahlk’s design plays off what he used for Best Of EC: Artist’s Edition, Volume One, or at least the colours. The design is a complete departure from the rest of the IDW Artist’s Edition Portfolio line, but works wonderfully as a companion piece the Best Of EC books. The usual IDW portfolio production, very heavy paper stock plates in a cardboard portfolio. It comes in a mylar sleeve with the UPC on a sticker sealing the sleeve. I had trouble locating information for this product. The Previewsworld listing came up, with Diamond code OCT138171, as did the SDCC 2013 listing. But nothing for a retail release from IDW, or in the October 2013 solicitations. The listed retail price is based on SDCC 2013 pricing. Like most of these portfolios I purchased mine second hand at a comic shop. The top corners were bent but I only paid $30 Canadian and with some applied pressure got the corners to a fairly good place.
