#13 The End
#13 The End
Published May 1952
“The End” (art by Wally Wood), “The Trip” (art by Jack Kamen), “Home to Stay” (art by Wood; unauthorized swipe of two Ray Bradbury stories, “Kaleidoscope” and “Rocket Man”), and “Don’t Count Your Chickens” (art by Joe Orlando). The letters page features a well-reasoned response from the editors to a letter from a parent critical of SF and horror comics such as those published by EC. Al Feldstein classic outer space cover. NOTES: There are two issues in this series numbered 13. The one dated 1950 is issue # 1 in the series. The issue pictured here, dated May-June 1952, is the actual # 13 in the series. Also, this issue was reprinted by East Coast Comics with a $1 cover and 1970’s copyright date (see E.C. Classic Reprints # 5). These and other changes make the reprint easy to distinguish from the original, which has a 10-cent cover price and a 1950’s publication date. Cover price $0.10.
