As a change of pace and per request I'm going to see if I can post a few EC stories that weren't part of the horror lineup.

This EC comic is not a horror story but it did serve the basis for an episode of HBO's Tales from the Crypt with Kirk Douglas in one of the lead roles.

The next installment in the Bradbury centennial is 'The Black Ferris'. This is a significant Bradbury story in that it served as a dry run for the novel 'Something Wicked This Way Comes'.

Recent concerns about grocery supply-chain disruptions and hoarding made me think of my high school history lessons about World War II food rationing. That in turn reminded me of one of my favourite EC stories, not the least because its title is one of their cleverest puns (the other being "Horror We? How's Bayou?").

I just discovered artist Jack Davis passed away a few days ago at the age of 91. He's generally remembered for his work on MAD but he also worked on EC's horror titles. Here's one I posted a few years back, "Let the Punishment Fit the Crime" from 'Vault of Horror' #33.

With October starting soon, I figured I'd ask once again if anyone would like to see any specific stories published by EC Comics or Warren (who published stuff like Creepy). Wikipedia at least has a complete list of each of all the stories under each EC title if there's anything that grabs your attention. 

EDIT: Also if anyone wants to see any Junji Ito stories for Halloween, I can post those too.

Here's a story I first posted here way back in 2011 titled "Let the Punishment fit the Crime"...

Nearly all comics publishers run ads regularly for their own titles, within their own titles. EC Comics, in the early 50s, had more fun with many such ads than did most of their competition.
