Excellent scan!

I really liked the stories. As for the artwork - it is fantastic!

This fantastic series of horror, fantasy, supernatural tales is, in my opinion, the very pinnacle of perfection regarding the stories and incredible art work in this gender. I've read right through to number 62 and this quality is maintained throughout. Incidentally, No. 62 is the first issue under the Comics Code, this copy didn't disappoint either. I'd love to see some copies of EC's 'Tales From The Crypt'. Why aren't any copies available? Are the still copyrighted?

I could never hope to track down, much less afford,all the fabulous books in this series. The art is so splendid, the writing wickedly clever. Thank you, thank you kind scanners for sharing these gems with us. I appreciate you all so much.

acg is one of my favorite comic companies i'd love to know who the artist's were in this issue,,,,, great stuff my favorite story is probably the living ghost what a character
   By
Great collection - thanks! Not sure what issue, I noticed it in #58, but they start the “FREE 3D Effect - NO GLASSES NEEDED!” I think that means some of the panel art extends beyond the border.
   By
This collection is wonderful, I like the art in the living ghost story and I love The Painted Grave, that story is legitimately terrifying. All and all, this pre-code horror stuff is great, each story is like its own little B-movie. As to the comment about why Tales From the Crypt isn't available. Since EC technically still exists (though now only publishing MAD reprints), all of their work is still under copyright and official reprints can be purchased under the "EC Archives" label.
