Foul Play and Other Stories
When Jack Davis took up his pen for EC Comics, he imbued his stories with a playful sense of (gallows) humour that made his innocent victims more eye-poppingly terrified, his ax-murders more gleefully gruesome, and his revenge-seeking corpses more morbidly motivated than any other EC artist. These horror and suspense tales—from the pages of Vault of Horror, Haunt of Fear,...Hardback$6699Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 3-4 weeks -

Kamen's Kalamity And Other Stories
Jack Kamen's stories for The Vault of Horror, Tales From the Crypt, and The Haunt of Fear favoured unnerving creepiness over gruesome shock.
