☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the complete EC Comics work of artist Reed Crandall, showcasing his distinctive, detailed style across a range of horror, science fiction, and crime stories from the 1950s. It includes tales originally published in titles like Shock SuspenStories, Tales from the Crypt, and The Vault of Horror, featuring the titular story 'Daddy Lost His Head' and other classics. The collection is part of Fantagraphics' ongoing library dedicated to the legendary EC artists, with restored artwork and historical context essays.
In "The Mummy's Return!" from The Fantagraphics EC Artists' Library #20, a chilling tale of vanity and consequence unfolds as George Baker, after commissioning a voodoo bust of himself in Haiti, finds his life entangled with the cursed sculpture. Written by Al Feldstein and Bill Gaines, with art and inks by Jack Kamen, the story follows George’s eerie transformation as he remains ageless while the bust ages relentlessly—until a fateful encounter with a young woman named Jean sets off a chain of events that blurs the line between the living and the cursed. The cover, also by Jack Kamen, captures the unsettling atmosphere of this classic EC horror tale.
