Reed Crandall’s remarkable work for EC Comics will be collected in an oversized artist’s edition from IDW Publishing, due on shelves in March.
Reed Crandall’s EC Stories Artist’s Edition collects scans of Crandall’s original black-and-white art for EC Comics. The 144-page, 15” x 22” hardcover will be in stores March 22, 2017. MSRP is $150.00.
Crandall, the talented artist behind Quality Comics’ Blackhawk and Doll Man, was a mainstay at EC, drawing dozens of stories for some of EC’s most popular anthology series, including Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror, Crime SuspenStories, and Shock SuspenStories.
After the Comics Code effectively destroyed EC Comics, Crandall went on to work on the magazine-sized horror anthologies Creepy and Eerie and various Tower Comics titles, including T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents (see “'T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents' Planned as Franchise”).
