This sort of bizarre happenings never really occurred in EC tales (but then again, the realism in EC crime stories is what made them so great).<br /><br /><br />"Blood Brothers" can be used as propaganda to help convert people towards being more compassionate with our four-legged friends.

While it's from the Atlas era there's definitely a Warren feel to it.<br /><br />Dug The Stranger From Space as well!

Sometimes that's the beauty of reader requests around here, it forces me to pull out an issue and post something I may have simply forgotten about, or overlooked.<br /><br />So who have we forgotten in our All Atlas Month fest? Surely there's one name that strikes fear in the hearts of pre-code readers (and fellow Atlas bullpen artists) like no other? Did someone say Bill Everet? Yup. We'll be featuring him next, along with another request for Joe Maneely too! It's all coming next, as we wind down what has undoubtably been one of my favortie months since I started this blog!Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-29119825533393884482009-06-28T18:13:15.059-05:002009-06-28T18:13:15.059-05:00Blood Brothers is one of the most imaginative and ...Blood Brothers is one of the most imaginative and genuinely disturbing stories I've read on here.

I had this issue years ago and sold it, it's probably the scariest use of pigs in horror fiction you'll ever see. <br /><br /> Yes, even in HANNIBAl. Yes, even in the original 'To Serve Man' story. Yes, even in Atlas's own 'the Hog'.<br /><br /> Interesting how the scientist is named 'Trask', too. Maybe he should've sent out giant robot sentinels out to hunt pigs intsead of the X-men.<br /><br /> Great stuff.<br /><br /> ......AAAANNNND let's ignore the honest-to-gosh-effectivenesss of this story, and let the bacon jokes commence....Horror pariahnoreply@blogger.com
