Description

Graham (“Ghastly”) Ingels creates a fabulous story page for the classic (and unsurprisingly, horrific) EC tale, “Last Respects.” (Tales of the Crypt #23.)

I likely first ran into this specific story from the Vault of Horror reprint paperback (1965) which I grabbed at a flea market sometime the early 70s. Oddly, the Crypt cover from this story was reused as the jacket art for the amazing Nostalgia Press EC reprint collection (1971) (which hooked me into EC Comics to begin with) — but did not include the story inside!

As for Ingels himself? — He was the most prolific of the EC horror artists and in many ways, he was the most intriguing personality of the EC gang. Later in his life, he was certainly the most elusive, seemingly horrified (pun intended) by his contribution to these classic comics.

Wow! Tantalizing page from Tales from the Crypt. Masterfully drawn and inked by the great Graham Ingels, we follow a distraught man seeking the burial place of his lost love. We know what's going to happen to him, but we still eagerly follow him through the empty graveyard, into the mausoleum, holding our breath as he discovers her coffin and...There's this shiver of anticipation we all feel when we read these classic tales of horror and death. But that's why we all love the old EC comics--They make us feel that tingle of fear! How many other comics still have the ability to make us shiver? Hmmm?

Ingles draws this wrought with so much emotion that even the protagonist can not recognize the danger that awaits. Perhaps, in a twisted way, it is a life lesson to be learned from Tales From the Crypt.

Ingels could really set the mood! Great use of shadows, POV, and horrified expressions
