Strange Terrors was a pre-comic code horror comic series. Popular but short lived, this series was published by St. John publications who at one time was a giant of the comic book industry. St. John Publications was an American publisher of magazines and comic books. During its short existence (1947-58), St. John's comic books established several industry firsts. Founded by Archer St. John (1904-55), the firm was located in Manhattan at 545 Fifth Avenue. After the St. John comic books came to an end in 1958, the company continued to publish its magazine line into the next decade. This book has been image enhanced to give the reader a comic as it was, freshly published more then fifty years ago and contains stories from two complete issues.

Starting in 1950, EC Comics launched a series of titles that turned the comicbook world upside-down. Their science-fiction, suspense, and war comics thrilled young readers… but it was for their horror tales that they are best remembered. Over 60 years later, titles like Tales from the Crypt and Vault of Horror conjure up all sorts of ghastly stories with ghoulish twist endings, populated by some of the most stomach-churningly loathsome creatures imaginable. This ebook presents large, full-color scans of the company’s three main horror titles, as well as a number of smaller ones, representing all of the EC books in this genre. In addition the reader is given story and publishing information on each issue as well.

Horror comics were among the first comic books published--ghastly tales that soon developed an avid young readership, along with a bad reputation. Parent groups, psychologists, even the United States government joined in a crusade to wipe out the horror comics industry--and they almost succeeded. Yet the genre survived and flourished, from the 1950s to today. This history covers the tribulations endured by horror comics creators and the broader impact on the comics industry. The genre's ultimate success helped launch the careers of many of the biggest names in comics. Their stories and the stories of other key players are included, along with a few surprises.

In 1954, the comic book industry instituted the Comics Code, a set of self-regulatory guidelines imposed to placate public concern over gory and horrific comic book content, effectively banning genuine horror comics. Because the Code applied only to color comics, many artists and writers turned to black and white to circumvent the Code's narrow confines. With the 1964 Creepy #1 from Warren Publishing, black-and-white horror comics experienced a revival continuing into the early 21st century, an important step in the maturation of the horror genre within the comics field as a whole. This generously illustrated work offers a comprehensive history and retrospective of the black-and-white horror comics that flourished on the newsstands from 1964 to 2004. With a catalog of original magazines, complete credits and insightful analysis, it highlights an important but overlooked period in the history of comics.
