JACK DAVIS / WALLY WOOD / MOBIUS - there were none more imaginative.

This channel is god sent. You guys have no idea.

[@darkwoods1954]

EC are still some of the best quality comics ever made.

R.I.P. Jack Davis.

[@russworks2882]

Davis just kills me every time; he's like a master samurai with that brush. Archie Goodwin and Angelo Torres were inspired by this story to do the origin of Uncle Creepy in "Monster Rally" in Creepy #4.

I have a big stack of those Gladstone reprints that I got via mail order in the late 90s. I ordered some Dick Tracy comics from them too. Now I can't remember how I found out about them. An ad in Wizard, maybe?

Forget presidential politics and the state of the world, the origins of the Crypt Keeper...now that's important.

[@gilraybaker826]

The purpose of the text is to simulate the narration style of old radio shors like Witches Tale, or Lights Out. I also saw my 1st EC jack davis at age 8...in the MAD 50s paperback reprints. 1973, represent...kaf kaf kaf.

16:45 the hat looking furry: I believe they used to be made out of like... Beaver skin/fur?? I remember seeing something about that kind of thing because I had always thought they were like silk or satin, or maybe felt (many of them were actually made from these materials) but the beaver hide ones would have to be brushed in order to make them shine and to lay the individual hairs of the fur down neatly; If his hat is looking furry, then I don't think he's been brushing his beaver out very well lately 😆

The first ‘Jimmy what weekend is it’ is going to hit different 🤠

[@mattstreets9809]

I’m not quite sure why it took me so long to realize this, but the entire career of Rick Altergott basically comes from EC comics, and maybe even specifically from this issue! Great job dudes, keep ‘em coming!

[@xrisfractal]

So good...I love Jack Davis and I love this story in particular. But hearing your commentary along with this classic is pure entertainment!!

[@KevinJones-ko2sr]

Fantastic comic! Great artwork in black and white.

[@willagnes8376]

Y'all are killing it. Quality content.

[@gb7995]

Awesome EC story and video. Thanks again

[@KeithHarper]

Great stuff! I only knew his work from MAD. I'll have to track these down.

[@erikcjones]

I don't know why I slacked on orderingt his book when it came out, so I just ordered it. Damn you Kayfabe Effect!
