In "The Prude," a 1954 EC horror classic, writer Carl Wessler and artist Graham Ingels deliver a chilling tale of guilt and retribution, with haunting visuals by Ingels and color work by Marie Severin. When a man’s obsession with morality leads him to enforce a bizarre law separating the sexes in death, the women of the cemetery rise in silent defiance—unearthing a fate far darker than he ever imagined.
