    When Jack Davis took up his pen for EC Comics, he imbued his stories with a playful sense of (gallows) humour that made his innocent victims more eye-poppingly terrified, his ax-murders more gleefully gruesome, and his revenge-seeking corpses more morbidly motivated than any other EC artist. These horror and suspense tales—from the pages of Vault of Horror, Haunt of Fear,...

    With his wholesome approach, Jack Kamen stood out amongst the grunge, gritty realism or futuristic dazzle of his fellow EC cartoonists.
