The Unwanted
The Mastermen called it a "census," but it was so much more. If its citizens proved worthy, the Earth would join the interstellar confederation and reap the benefits of advanced alien technology, food, medicine, and educational resources the likes of which could scarcely be imagined. But first, there was the question of race ... Uncannily perceptive and prescient when it was written in 1953, EC writer Otto Binder's The Unwanted went unsold for more than a decade until he finally gave it to a fanzine publisher who promptly got out of the fanzine business -- and so it languished, unread, in a yellowing file folder for decades. Never before published and now unearthed, The Unwanted is Binder's ...

Shipwreck in the Sky

Classic EC science fiction from the pen of Joe Orlando, including two Ray Bradbury stories, all of EC's "Adam Link" adaptations, and the famous anti-racism title story.
Behold the Pale Horse: What We Really Know about Flying Saucers
At long last, a highly qualified science writer, NASA's Otto Binder, has reviewed the overwhelming mass of UFO material and organized it into a meaningful and lucid book. He has done a remarkable job of sifting fact from fantasy, and truth from nonsense. If there is a "secret" to UFO mystery, it can be found somewhere in these pages.
The High Cost of Dying
Reed Crandall's mastery of fine line detail and expertly nuanced pen-and-ink texture is a perfect fit for EC Comics. This collection of 21 Crandall favorites, delineated in his classically illustrative style, includes “The Silent Towns,” a Ray Bradbury story about the last man and woman on Mars; “Carrion Death,” a stark horror story about a man struggling through the desert with a corpse handcuffed to his wrist as the vultures circle closer; “Sweetie-Pie,” the grisly story of a ghoul who sets up a roadside hazard to procure, um, fresh meat; “The Kidnapper,” about a man who decides to kidnap a baby to replace the baby that had been stolen from him and his wife; “Space Suitors,” a science fiction love triangle that leads to jealously, betrayal, and murder, and “The High Cost of Dying,” the title story, in which a man must make an awful choice between burying his wife and feeding his children.
