As for the rest of ya, the purpose of this blog is to (re)introduce you to the great comics of the 1970s. If you like what you see, do what I do--go to a comics shop, bookstore, e-Bay or whatever and BUY YOUR OWN!
When your friend who stole your girl wants to do eye surgery on you with lenses from a wolf carcass in his garage or storeroom, and you think it just might work out? Many kinds of blind! And wolves as well! Thanks Groove!
ReplyDeleteI got wind of this story awhile back and bought the comic (thanks eBay). So good to see EC great Reed Crandall doing work into the 70s. The Len Wein story was his usual brilliance. All in all a taut little terror tale.
ReplyDeleteI never knew Reed Crandall drew for any mainstream comic books in the '70s, knowing only his Warren magazine work of that decade.
