EC Comics are widely credited for causing the dissolution of the morals of kids and teens in the 1950's thus playing a large part in the public outcry over comics that led to Senate hearings condeming the sex and violence within their pages. Dark Horse brings their usual high quality design and production values to the creation of collector's editions of these seminal comics.

Writer-artist-editor Harvey Kurtzman teamed with legendary artists Wally Wood, Johnny Craig, Jack Davis, Al Feldstein, John Severin, Will Elder, and Dave Berg to create these powerful stories of struggle and humanity that are considered to be among the best war stories ever told. Now, Dark Horse Books is proud to present this first incredible volume, reprinting the first six complete issues of Two-Fisted Tales, originally published in 1950 and 1951. Includes an introduction by noted comics collector and founder of Diamond Comics Distributors, Stephen Geppi.
