I appreciate the offer to contribute. Other than the list of titles on my checklist (below), I wouldn't have much to offer. I have random & vague information from having collected comics for 36 years, but nothing so authoritative or noteworthy that it would qualify me to compose a wiki. I think it's safe to say that the rest of the guys have an appreciation for EC but it's more from the sidelines. I post scans as I buy them. The other guys watch and admire.
I created this forum to see if there was anyone who actively had anything to contribute or discuss, but so far that is not the case.
At the bottom of my checklist I have links which will pop up scans of a mailing envelope from "Picture Stories from the Bible", a EC Fan Addict announcement letter, and an EC subscription cancellation card. You are free you use anything I have posted here. My scan archive is not complete because I'm still in the process of collecting either personal scans or high quality scans online. I'm working on so many other things that EC isn't a high priority.
If you have any questions or comments you are welcome to post them here.

Regardless if you take it or not, that's high praise. It is a compliment for the work you have already done.

The checklist was a bit of a research project. While it does add depth to a wiki, I don't think it really qualifies me to write authoritatively on the topic. My dad doesn't buy or read much printed material anymore, but he got me interested in them. He used to buy them as a kid and they were his favorite comics. My first exposure to them were the East Coast reprints in the 70's. I know a lot about EC comics, but there isn't anything cohesive enough to write an article. In addition, I have a backlog of personal goals I'm trying to achieve and writing thorough and concise articles on comics is not really an ambition I have. If you have any specific questions you want to ask, I'll do my best to answer them. If any of your contributors are interested in discussing EC here, you are welcome. I'm a big fan of their stuff. Someday I may expand my checklist to cover more stuff. Right now it's not a big priority for me. Q |
