The Best of 75 Years of EC Comics Review :
This is a very generous (60+stories) anthology of the EC Comics line from the ‘50s, which probably needs no introduction at this point. Most of the best-known stories are here (see below), although the book is thin on stories from the Harvey Kurtzman war titles. There are no rarities, and no MAD or PANIC stories included. The color is good, and looks to be based on the original Marie Severin coloring—whether it matches, I don’t know.If you are new to EC, this book is a great way to poke around and see what you think. For those who know the line already, you will probably be more or less pleased depending on your taste. There’s a lot of Davis and Ingels horror stories (about 9 each), including “Horror We, How’s Bayou,” “Foul Play,” and others. The other most-represented artists are Jack Kamen (7 stories) and Johnny Craig (6); their styles may seem less than contemporary now, but they were part of the EC experience.The war and science fiction artists are less-represented, but there is still a lot of prime material here: 5 Wood stories, including “Came the Dawn,” and “Mars is Heaven,” and four Williamson/Fleagles, including “Sound of Thunder” and “50 Girls 50.” (Frazetta’s “Squeeze Play” is NOT included.) By my count there are 10 of the Kurtzman war stories: 3 illustrated by him, 4 by John Severin, and 3 others, including Toth’s “Thunderjet.” The book also includes some nice Reed Crandall and the two most famous Bernie Krigstein stories, “The Flying Machine” and “Master Race.”This is a good deal. I would guess someone new to this stuff after 60 years will probably find some of it visually pleasing and some of it kind of wooden. Likewise, the story content often revolves around gory shock endings; but some of the stories, like “Rommel” and “Judgment Day” have higher aspirations, and I think they hold up well. There’s also a nice noir-ish quality to the EC crime stories.*One caution for ipad readers:* As I write this, CHOKE GASP uses the old, bad comics format—where you can’t enlarge part of a page to your taste, but only click on any one panel to make it slightly bigger. Some of the EC ARCHIVES ebook series are like this; many others work like any other Kindle with pictures, where you can expand any part of the page as much as you want. (I’m on a 5th series ipad). The format used is vexing and I hope they fix it. It’s a pleasure to zoom in really close on the art (some of it is that good) and you can’t do that.With that caveat—nice job. … I have to say that it's nice to have a Best Of volume of EC stories, but Dark Horse really missed a lot of opportunities here -- and I'm not talking about the digital coloring (which, addressed in other reviews, many fans have strong feelings toward; it doesn't bug me as much as it does in Dark Horse's Conan volumes).It's interesting to note that the stories are presented by artist as opposed to genre, title or chronology -- so if the artist is the hook, why not provide artist bios for readers new to EC? The EC Artist of the Issue pages could have been leveraged. New bios could have been written in a day or two. Sheesh, offer SOMEthing.I would like to have seen Dark Horse include 11 more stories. Not only would it have made the book a 75-story celebration of 75 years (seems like an obvious marketing hook), but notable omissions like Frank Frazetta's "Squeeze Play," Bernard Kriegstein's "Catacombs" Will Elder's "Strop, You're Killing Me" (Elder isn't represented at all), and Joe Orlando's "The Monkey" (a controversial drug story) could have been added.That there are only 2 stories by Al Feldstein and 7 stories by Jack Kamen (none of which is "Kamen's Kalamity") is perhaps the pithiest summation of how the story choices in this book could have been vastly improved.And why no bonus material? The perfunctory intro by Grant Geissman is not even close to satisfying in terms of introducing a new reader to the wonders of EC. A really solid selection of extras could have been assembled with minimal effort.Back in the 1970s, the Nostalgia Press book, "The EC Horror Library of the 1950s," was an oversized, gory and glorious introduction to the greatest comics ever published. It's known as The Big Book, revered and sought-after by fans to this day. I don't know if "Choke Gasp!" will become a new generation's Big Book (a better story selection and the inclusion of extras certainly would have helped it along that path), but any EC is better than no EC, and it doesn't hurt to have a volume like this out there.But oh, this could have been so much more.
