PRE CODE CLASSICS DARK MYSTERIES HC VOL 01

by Various

How can you go wrong when the first comic of a 24-book series kicks off with an eight-pager from Wally Wood (‘The Curse of the Sea Witch’)?! I mean, come on, guys. Okay, so the work in these books (the first six of which are included in this first volume), is not gonna get a Pulitzer but, heck, that’s more a reflection on the judges than the material. And that’s only for starters. Elsewhere there are tales from Joe Orlando, Walter Johnson, Ed Goldfarb, A.C. Hollingsworth, Bill Fraccio, Lou Cameron, John D’Agostino, Tony Tallarico, Harry Harrison and Hy Fleishman and a whole host of other wacked-out-of-their-gourd luminaries. So put down that essay, Junior and flash back to when comics were . . . Well, comics, fer cryin’ out loud. Go get it, kids.

Artists include Walter Johnson, Ed Goldfarb, A.C. Hollingsworth, Bill Fraccio, Lou Cameron, John D’Agostino, Tony Tallarico, Harry Harrison and Hy Fleishman.

This first volume covers the MASTER COMICS title of DARK MYSTERIES issues 1 - 6 from June/July 1951 to April/May 1951.

About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.
