Tales of Terror

In the mid-1980s, Eclipse Comics launched Tales of Terror, a 13-issue horror anthology that leaned into moody, atmospheric dread rather than gore. Frequent contributors like writers Bruce Jones, Steve Bissette, and Anthony Smith, alongside artists John Bolton, Eric Vincent, and Glen Johnson, crafted a series of standalone tales exploring the macabre and the uncanny. It stands as a distinctive, short-lived entry in the era's independent comics boom, showcasing the versatility of its creators outside the superhero mainstream.
