Beschreibung:

Fine/VF (5.0). Clean, flat, bright, supple copy with light edgewear and spine stress. Off-white pages. Jack Davis cover. Art by Wood, Krigstein, Orlando, Davis. Formerly Weird-Science Fantasy. 1st Code-approved EC sci-fi. In the post-Code era, the word WEIRD in comic book titles was poison, so Weird-Science Fantasy became Incredible Science Fiction. Bill Gaines dropped one of the two EC cover emblems to make space for the mandated Comics Code Authority stamp. In an hostile marketplace, Jack Davis's cover shows the latent marketing savvy that would soon take him from MAD man to ad-man. It's an image calculated to elicit curiosity, right down to the fellow in the corner beckoning the reader to have a closer look.
