<B>Al Feldstein - Weird Science #13 (#2) Cover Original Art (EC, 1950).</B></I> With this cover for the second issue of <B>Weird Science</B></I>, EC introduced a historic new trend in magazines -- fantastic "SuspenStories" they <I>dared </B></I>the public to read. This electrifying scene is considered by many comic book fans to be the Cold War period's single most effective cover, spotlighting the flying saucer mania of the late forties and fifties in a political conspiracy context. An Air Force "spin doctor" is forced to eat a monumental-sized serving of "crow" as gigantic flying saucers rocket over his head even as he denies their existence in the nation's capitol. In true EC fashion, Al Feldstein set up a truly jaw-dropping scene that compelled the Atomic Age readers to buy this issue to find out about "events leading up to the flying saucer invasion" -- <I>Spa fon</B></I>, what a cover-up! The image area of this spectacular cover measures approximately 13" x 19.5", and it is in Excellent condition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
