Grave Business And Other Stories (The Fantagraphics EC Comics Artists Library, 13)

Our latest collection of influential EC comics features â€œGhastlyâ€ Graham Ingelsâ€™s horror art.
Even in an era of explicit horror films, â€œGhastlyâ€ Graham Ingels still delivers a shock to readers with his grisly depictions of the stomach-churning fates of the evil men (and women) in these storiesâ€•leavened only by a sly wink to the reader and a generous dose of dreadful puns. Ingelsâ€™s brushwork oozes ominously across every panel, perfectly setting the mood for the shudder-inducing fates of such corrupt characters as the sadistic asylum director, the political candidate who murders his opponent, the ventriloquist with the homicidal â€œdummy,â€ the millionaire who persecutes an aged junkman, and the medieval duke who runs over a young boy with his carriage then taxes the peasants to pay for cleaning up his victimâ€™s blood. Like every book in the Fantagraphics EC line, Grave Business And Other Stories superbly showcases these classic comic book masterpieces and enhances the readerâ€™s experience with commentary and historical and biographical detail from EC experts.
