I.W. Publishing became notorious for publishing unauthorized reprints of other company's comics, often with new covers. The numbering of most of the company's titles is misleading, often not starting at issue #1 and skipping issue numbers. Incredibly though, the company produced 118 separate titles, no mean achievement!
Plus: the bonus issue Fantastic Tales featuring glorious horror tales from the fantastic A.C. Hollingsworth, Norman Nodel and Harry Lazarus.
Hardcover 184 pages, full color.
