 "NOBODY HAS EVER BEEN RUINED BY A COMIC:'

EC COMICS PUBLISHER W I LLIAM M. GAINES DURING TESTI MONY BEFORE

THE SENATE SUBCOMMITTEE ON JUVENILE DELINQUENCY IN' 19 54

EC COMICS' W FIRO SCI ENCE AND WEIRD FANTASYW ERE
BIMONTHLY SCIENCE-FI CTI ON COMIC BOOKS PUBLIS HED
BY BILL GAINES (192 2- 92 ) IN THE EARLY 1950S. GAINES
ALSO PUB LISHED THE HORR OR TITLES TALES FROM THE
CRYPT; THE VAUL T OF HORRO~ AND THE HAUN-TOF FEAR.
IN A CROWDED FIELD. EC' S COMI C BOOKS STOOD OUT DU E
DUE TO POOR SALES RESULTING FROM POLITICAL PRES­
SURE PLACED ON EC' S DISTRIBUTORS, WEIRO S CI ENCE
AND WEI RD FANTASYW ERE MERGED IN 19 54 TO BECOME
WEIRD SCIENCE-FANTASY. AFTER JUST SEVEN ISSUES, THE
TITLE WAS CHANGED TO INCREDI BLE SC.lENCE FIC TION TO
FURTHER APPEASE THE COMICS CODE AUTH ORIT Y THAT

.
TO. THEI R S UPERIO R ARTWORK AND IRONIC PLOT TWIS TS.
WEI RD SC.lENCE AND WEIRD FAN TAS Y, IN PARTICULAR,
OFTEN FEATURED SOPHI STICATED STORYLINES 'TOUCH­
ING ON ADULT ISSUES, SUCH AS RACIAL INJUSTICE AND
SOCIAL INEQUALITY.
WHILE EC' S WlnTING WAS IMPRESSIVE, THE COMICS'
REMARKABLE IMAGERY IS WHAT MOST DIS TINGUIS HED
THE COMPANY FROM ITS COMPETITORS. GAINES PRO­
MOTED HIS ILLUSTRATORS AS ARTISTS WORTHY OF
RECOGNITION AND ATI RACTED A REMARKABLE STABL E OF
TALENT I NCLUDING WALLY WOOD (1927-81), JACK DAVIS
(8. 19 24), AND AL FELDSTEIN (B. ,gZ5), THE COMICS' EDITOR
WHO WROTE, DREW, AND PRODUCED MOST OF THE COVER
ILLUSTRATIONS FOR THE SERIES.
ALTHOUGH GAINES' PUBLICATIONS MAY HAVE APPEALED
TO ADULTS, THEY W ERE CLEAR LY' MARKET ED FOR CHILDREN,
AND THE COMICS' GRAPHIC CONTENT ATI RACTED STRONG
CRITICISM FOR ITS ALLEGED HARMFUL EFFECT ON CHIL­
DREN. AFTER AN UNAPOLOGETIC GAINES TESTIFIED BEFORE
A SENATE SUBCOMMITIEE ON J UVENILE DELINQUENCY IN
19 54, THE NATIONAL PRESS DEPICTED HI M AS AN AMORAL
PUBLISHER CORRUPTING THE YOUTH OF AMERICA.
HAD RESTRICTED THE USE OF THE WO RDS "HORROR"'AND
"TERROR" WHILE TARGETING GAINES' PUBLICATIO NS.
WHEN THE CODE ADMINISTRATOR DEMANDED THE
REMOVAL OF AN AFRICAN AMERICAN ASTRONAUT FEA­
TURED IN THE POW ERFVL ANTI- RACI SM STORY "iTUDGE­
.MENT DAY!" IN .fNCRE0I8L E SCIENCE F!CTI ON(NO. 33),
GAINES REFUSED. HE PRINTED THE STORY UNCHAN GED A~D
CEASED PUBLICATION OF HI S ENTIRE LINE OF COMICS
EXCEPT ONE, THE SATIRICAL' MAD, WHICH WAS CHANGED
TO A MAGAZINE FORMAT TO ESCAPE CENSORSHIP BY THE
COMI CS CODE AUTHORIT Y.
EC COMIC BOOKS HAVE REMAINED POPULAR THROUGHOUT
THE PAST FIFTY YEARS, AND ALTHOUGH ANY REMA INING
ORI GINAL COPIES ARE PROBABLY HIDDEN AWAY BY THEIR
OWNERS IN PROTECTIVE SLEEVES, NEW GENERATIONS OF
FANS CONTINUE TO ~ISCOVE R THEM THRpU GH REPRINTS
OF THE ORIGINAL COMIC BOOK S AND IN HARDBOUND
