As good as...I had my EC fase and left it behind me. As good as those books were, for me they have come to represent the fragment of comics fandom that tried to elevate EC to the level of literature to the detriment of all the other companies - including my favorite Timely/Atlas. I understand, those fans needed something to to explain their love of 'kiddie comics' and the verbose EC stories (which were good, mind you, but never better than the best of pulp culture), but the netto effect was that the more entertaining books from the fifties were left out of the official history of comics. So I decided to right that wrong and although I never disliked EC, I find it best to leave it to oters who know more about it. Feldstein's Mad interests me to no end, though and I find it equally amusing that the EC lovers have given to Harvey Kurtzman some of the inventions and innovations that really come from the Feldstein era.Ger Apeldoornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633862833036214748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25254614.post-58183941106998325902014-05-05T12:11:24.743-07:002014-05-05T12:11:24.743-07:00Dale Goss - here's Allan Holtz explaining:

I kinda get a feeling you were never fond of him... <br /><br />I'd love to see some of his stuff prior to EC. Maybe this has been covered elsewhere, I dunno...Diego Cordobahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03217884448976689435noreply@blogger.com
