Shock Illustrated #2 - Al Williamson art

Shock Illustrated #2

Shock Illustrated v1 #2, 1956 - Evading the newly enacted comics code, EC produced several adult-targeted magazines. Each story combined text and artwork in near equal proportion. Al Williamson's tale of murder and infidelity is superbly drawn. His brushwork is supple and masterful. Although confined to black and white, his use of greytone screens increases both depth and richness. Also in this issue is some of the finest work I've ever seen from Reed Crandall and Graham Ingels. Other artists in this golden age crime comic include George Evans. This is 1 of 1 Shock Illustrated issues by Williamson.
