John Severin takes control. When John Severin became editor of Two-Fisted Tales, he
expanded the scope of its stories beyond its traditional war stories
to head off to far-flung times and places, searching for adventure.
This volume collects all those stories - the EC stories that
Severin had the most control over. Severin wrote and drew the
title story, about an old-fashioned Southern "gentleman" who
sees grievance at every turn and regularly challenges those who
are less skilled than he is to pistol duels. Is it murder when a man
is defending his honor? The other tales range from action and intrigue in the Old
West to exploring for a lost city in the jungles of Peru, to facing
danger in the Khyber Pass, to a Cold War chiller about the
"ultimate weapon," to EC's only Vietnam story, "Dien Bien Phu!"
Plus - the complete run of Severin's stories of globe-trotting two-fisted news photographer
Steve Rampart, from the pages of Extra!.
Severin was a master of detail, emotion, and reaction thanks to his precise,
detailed line; it brought such realism to the page, it seems as if he is reporting from
the scene. BONUS: This volume also delves into the EC Pre-Trend era with a sampling
of the work of lesser-known EC artists Lee J. Ames, Stan Ash, Ann Brewster, H.C.
Kiefer, and Ed Waldman. Code of Honor And Other Stories, like its companion volumes, features extensive story notes and a Severin biography. (immagine)
