DC COMICS

(W) Gail Simone (A) Adriana Melo (CA) Tess Fowler

Eel O'Brian takes a flexible view of morality: you walk on your side of the line, he'll keep his feet on his (no promises about his hands, eyes, ears or midsection). That all stopped when his alter ego Plastic Man got suckered into the high-stakes world of super-heroic traitors and super-villainous cabals. Now he's gonna stiffen his spine, screw up his courage and take the law into his own hands. Or he's going to swat Queen Bee into next Tuesday with his fly-swatter hand. One or the other.

PRE CODE CLASSICS TALES OF HORROR HC #1

(W) Various (A) Myron Fass (CA) Na

Toby dropped that and started over with Tales of Horror, which ran thirteen issues. Toby may be the only comics publisher to swipe the urbane and cynical stories of John Collier, rather than relying on Poe, Lovecraft, and the like. Collects Tales of Terror #1 (1952) and Tales of Horror #1-4 (June 1952 to March 1953).
