Creepy Archives Volume 4

Pulpy, smart, and scary, the stories in Creepy constituted some of the best shortform horror fiction ever told in comics. With legendary comics writer/editor Archie Goodwin both editing the magazine and crafting most of its storytelling, Creepy was at once a newsstand favorite with fright fans, and a vaunted showcase of fine comics art for serious fans of the art form. For decades, the only sources for these stories were the expensive collectible original issues. Now Dark Horse is collecting all of the original material from the history of Creepy magazine into a hardcover archive library that is garnering rave reviews from fans and critics alike! * "... this superlatively packaged Creepy Archives hardcover is a fine dénouement for fans of EC and comics history." Boston Weekly Dig * Grab your bleeding glasses and crack open this fourth big volume, collecting Creepy issues #16#20. "Since the stock is much finer than the authentic newsprint, visually, these pages are better than the originals, with moodly, dark blacks that punctuate the shock endings." Publishers Weekly
