Volume 7 - 1st printing. Basil Wolverton (July 9, 1909 - December 31, 1978) born in Central Point, Oregon and later moved to Vancouver, Washington. He worked as a vaudeville performer and a cartoonist and reporter for the Portland News. Wolverton was a master in caricaturing the human face and body and his drawings have elicited a wide range of reactions; he even described himself as a "Producer of Preposterous Pictures of Peculiar People who Prowl this Perplexing Planet." Preferring to work with pen and ink, Wolverton's lack of artistic schooling gave his drawings an otherworldly appearance. There was no other artist at the time who drew like him! Harvey Kurtzman felt "Wolverton never borrowed, never hacked, and he never shortchanged the public. Wolverton was an original." In 1991 he was posthumously inducted in the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame and in 2000 in the Will Eisner Hall of Fame. Collects Amazing Mystery Funnies featuring Space Patrol (December 1939-September 1940), Target Comics Month featuring Spacehawk (June 1940-June 1941), and Weird Tales of the Future featuring Basil Wolverton (June-September 1952).

AVON : EERIE COMICS #1 January 1947
It was January 1947 that the first real, indisputable horror comic came along - EERIE COMICS #1, published by Avon. It had a striking cover that was, well… eerie, depicting a strange-looking man with a knife on the steps of some sort of ruin, approaching a bound woman - a theme that was to be repeated countless times in the future . . . Whet your appetite on these horrors inside including The Eyes of the Tiger by Bob Fujitani featuring a pet tiger who gets his first taste for blood - no surprises there then? Dead Mans Tale by Jon Small gives us the story of a bottle that gave Myron Morgan wealth and how he died when it was destroyed. The Man-Eating Lizards by Joe Kubert, when a plane goes down in the ocean, the surviving crew members find themselves on an island of giant, man-eating lizards.
The Strange Case of Henpecked Harry by Fred Kida, tells how Harry Horton plots the death of his wife, only to be driven mad by the guilt. Its hard to point to a particular source or inspiration, such as radio or the pulps, for any of these stories as they were not adaptations and didnt come from any existing series - yet here they are, together as probably the worlds first true horror comic!
