Surrounded by the ornate, retro, proto-splatter horror graphics of JackDavis and Graham Ingels and the slick, futuristic sci-fi stylings of Wally Woodand Al Williamson, EC Comics superstar Johnny Craig stood out in the 1950s withhis elegant, crisp, contemporary graphic style. And nowhere did this style workmore beautifully than in the dozens of superb crime and horror comics he wroteand drew for EC, mostly for the two comics he also edited, Crime SuspenStoriesand The Vault of Horror. (Craig was the only EC artist to habitually write hisown material for the entire length of EC's run.) Featuring murderous husbandsand wives, executioners, thieving surgeons, vengeful sword-swallowers, timebombs, private dicks, vampires, werewolves, and ghouls, the 23 stories in thisbook comprise a perfect encapsulation of the very best and darkest kind of noirand horror writing, stunningly executed (in more than one sense of the word) byone of the great cartoonists of his (or any) era. And all in seven or eightpages per story! Fall Guy For Murder And Other Stories is once again, as are theother EC Comic Library releases, supplemented with several fascinating essaysand informative historical notes on the stories.
