Synopsis:

THE MOST NOTORIOUS NAME IN TERROR IS BACK―WITH A VENGEANCE!

From the publisher that drove Tales from the Crypt, Vault of Horror, Haunt of Fear, and many more into the depraved hearts of an unsuspecting world, the immortal EC COMICS returns with its first ALL-NEW series in nearly 70 years!

In our seminal first collection of Epitaphs From the Abyss, witness shocking tales of torment and tension in the immortal EC tradition―as wrenched from the grave by the vile intentions of acclaimed writers Brian Azzarello (Batman: Damned, 100 Bullets), Jason Aaron (Scalped, Thor: God of Thunder, TMNT), Chris Condon (That Texas Blood, Night People), J. Holtham (Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale), and Stephanie Phillips (Harley Quinn, Grim), and realized into bloody reality by "all-slaughter" artists Jorge Fornes (Rorschach, Danger Street), Phil Hester (Family Tree), Peter Krause (Irredeemable), Charlie Adlard (The Walking Dead), Klaus Janson (The Dark Knight Returns, Daredevil) and many more!

What the Comics Code Authority couldn't kill has only made it stronger . . . EC COMICS LIVES AGAIN IN EPITAPHS FROM THE ABYSS!

Collecting Epitaphs from the Abyss #1–4.

About the Authors: Brian Azzarello has been writing comics professionally since the mid-1990s. He is the author of Spaceman, Batman: Broken City, and the Harvey- and Eisner Award-winning 100 Bullets, all created in collaboration with artist Eduardo Risso. The New York Times bestselling author's other work for DC Comics includes the titles Hellblazer and Loveless (both with Marcelo Frusin), Superman: For Tomorrow (with Jim Lee), Joker, Luthor, and Rorschach (with Lee Bermejo), Comedian (with J.G. Jones), Sgt. Rock: Between Hell and a Hard Place (with Joe Kubert), and most recently the ongoing Wonder Woman series (with Cliff Chiang).



Chris Condon is the low-down dirty scoundrel behind the ongoing Image Comic series That Texas Blood and its acclaimed Wild West spinoff, The Enfield Gang Massacre, both with artist Jacob Phillips. He waded deep into bayou waters to adapt Barry Gifford's Night People for Oni Press and has not been the same since.

J. Holtham is an American screenwriter, best known for his work on TV shows such as Cloak and Dagger, Jessica Jones, and Supergirl. He recently broke into Marvel Comics with Bishop- War College, and is bringing back fan favorite nineties character, Night Thrasher, for his first solo series in 30 years.

Stephanie Phillips is an American writer known for comics and graphic novels such as Harley Quinn, Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight, Sensational Wonder Woman, and The Butcher of Paris. Her stories and comics have appeared with DC Comics, AfterShock Comics, Dark Horse, Oni Press, Top Cow/Image Comics, Heavy Metal, and more. Stephanie also holds a PhD in English.

Jason Aaron has been writing award-winning comic books for over two decades. After winning a Marvel Comics talent search contest in 2001, Aaron quickly became one of Marvel’s preeminent writers, crafting character-defining runs on such titles as Ghost Rider, Wolverine, Punisher, and Doctor Strange. His landmark seven year run on Thor featured the headline-grabbing adventures of Jane Foster as the Mighty Thor, and his 2015 Star Wars series became the best-selling American comic book in more than 20 years. Aaron’s critically acclaimed creator-owned work includes the Eisner- and Harvey Award–winning Southern Bastards from Image Comics and the New York Times bestselling Scalped from Vertigo Comics, plus the recently launched Once Upon a Time at the End of the World from BOOM! Studios. Aaron madehis DC Comics debut in the form of Batman Off-World and a 2024 takeover of Action Comics. Jason was born and raised in Alabama and currently resides in Kansas City.
