[QUOTE="Cobra, post: 622502, member: 1172"] Anyone remember "Tales from the Crypt?" The stories in the series were based on comic books from the 50's. These were the comics that pushed the envelope back then and became the catalyst for the establishment of the "Comic book code Authority" in the USA. Anyways, they also had a "Science Fiction" line called "Weird Science." I collected these like a madman when I was a kid. Still have them buried somewhere. They had some great stories and even adapted some of Asimov's works as well as "I, Robot" in addition to others such as Ray Bradbury. One of the most memorable (and well known) stories from these books was "Judgment Day" adapted from Ray Bradbury. It tackled the issue of race head on and upset the authorities back then. Link below that provides some insight to those interested. [URL]https://cacb.wordpress.com/2008/11/24/ec-comics-judgement-day/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
