\"Fantagraphics is embarking on a project to reprintMarvel Comics\' 1950s genre titles - war, crime,supernatural, funny animal, Western - under its newAtlas series with the first eight issues of the pre-Codehorror series Adventures Into Terror.Atlas holds a special place among aficionados of the genre, producingmore horror titles and issues by far, than anyone in theindustry. While the quality of E.C.\'s six horror/sci-fi titles was unsurpassedwith their elite cadre of talent, Atlas was the equivalent ofthe B-movies studio, churning out anywhere from 8 to 12 differenthorror titles a month, giving a wider array of artists, including someof the best craftsmen of the era, a chance to show off their talents. In addition to those already mentioned, future volumes will include works by BillEverett, John Romita, Bernie Krigstein, Jerry Robinson, Harry Anderson, and MattFox.
Stories from Marvel\'s Atlas line have barely been reprinted.The Fantagraphics Atlas Comics Library is the first attempt to publish a carefullycurated line of Atlas titles. Our first volume, Adventures Into Terror, includesa treasure trove of stories drawn by many of the most stylistically accomplishedartists of the Golden Age including George Tuska, Carl Burgos, Mike Sekowsky, JoeManeely, Basil Wolverton, and Joe Sinnott. Highlights include Russ Heath\'s twopartstory \"The Brain\" from issue #4 and \"Return of the Brain\" from issue #6; BasilWolverton\'s classic \"Where Monsters Dwell\" from issue #7; Gene Colan\'s moody\"House of Horror\" in issue #3; and Don Rico\'s wild layouts are on display from #4\'s\"The Torture Room.\" The stories are written firmly in the tradition of the pulpy, perverse,borderline deranged style that brought Fredric Wertham, the United StatesSenate Sub-Committee, and public opinion down like a sledgehammer on comicsin the early \'50s.\"
