Canadian Haunt of Fear info:
From: mikehunchback32 <email removed> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, October 6, 2009 11:58:05 AM Subject: [wood-l] Canadian EC Printings
I recently got a Canadian HAUNT OF FEAR, numbered 18 on the cover (although the letters page, which I assume is the same as an American issue, and says that "this issue is number 4", even though "the last issue was number 17". So I guess in Canada that change didn't occur at this point?
Also, unless I was looking at incorrect information, this issue has different stories than the American HAUNT OF FEAR #4. This issue contains -
"The Hunchback" by Graham Ingles ""The Tunnel of Terror" by Jack Kamen "The Living Mummy" by Jack Davis and "Man from the Grave" by Wally Wood
issue 7 from this page: http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:YViHo1LXaOcJ:bunkybrothers.com/haunt-of-fear-7-10-fr-p-6262.html+canadian+haunt+of+fear+comic&cd=7&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca&client=firefox-a
has same cover as american issue 7
issue 6 is listed on this page: http://www.metropoliscomics.com/bookSearch.php??&order=title&sort=asc&pageNum=0&pageSize=50&aSearchPos=down&searchType=discount&display=list&set=&front_image=&price=&mod_date=&style=&has_scan=&discount=on&grouplot=&title=HAUNT%20OF%20FEAR%201950-54

- 6(1949; Canadian Edition by Superior Pub; Graham INGELS cover & art; Craig-a; Feldstein-a; Lingerie panels; GGA = Good Girl Art; VG = $60);
no cover pictured, but mentions it is by Johnny Craig, so it could be the same as the US version
Canadian reprint of Untamed Love #1 from Quality. seen on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/UNTAMED-LOVE-1-CDN-WARD-CVR-50-OF-GUIDE-F-VF_W0QQitemZ150378109591QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item23033bda97
Probably Elhil or Alval as the publisher (though also possibly Bell... they all seem related). Seller says "Generally the story titles tell the story of UNTAMED LOVE #1. "I Was More Than A Secretary", "Weekend of Remorse", "Man Trap", and "My Life Of Lies" sum up the agony and ecstasy of 1950's Romance Comics perfectly.
(NB--The Canadian Version has the same story contents and cover as the U.S. version. The difference is that there is a Hockey magazine ad (do tell!) and the inside covers have Canadian ads)"
Cover is the same as the cover of issue 1 of the American series and seller says it's by Bill Ward.
Canadian reprint of Dell's Tarzan #12 seen on eBay http://cgi.ebay.com/Tarzan-Comic-Dec-Jan-1950-Canadian-Edition_W0QQitemZ180416219527QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a01a50987
Cover is reprint of issue 12 (front and back). Indicia is shown and hard to read but definitely from Wilson and almost definitely also issue 12. Cover doesn't have number on it. Date given in auction as Dec-Jan 1950. Inside front cover blank. First story is Tarzan and the Price of Peace. Last page shown only has half a page of artwork. Appears to be two boys and a canoe (6 panels)... suspect it is Two Against the Jungle, the last story in the original. Rest of last page and inside back cover are blank. Back cover is African warrior "A Dahoman(?) Warrior of West Africa".
Walt Disney Comics and Stories from Wilson - add issue 104
Joe Palooka 19 - unknown publisher - cover doesn't match any american edition I could find
Li'l Abner 89 - publisher not mentioned in eBay auction but we already have issues listed as Super. Same cover as American Toby series Also issue 83 - publisher not mentioned. Same cover as American Toby series. Ebay auctioner mentions that both are 36 pages.
Our Gang with Tom and Jerry #47 - listed by MileHigh on eBay as published by Dell, but probably actually from Wilson. Same cover as american Dell series #47
Archie Comics #34 - Bell Features - cover matches issue #35 of the american series. Archie Comics #37 - Bell Features - cover matched same issue of american series.
Journey into Unknown Worlds #36 - Bell Features. - cover matches issue 36 of 1950 series.
Kerry Drake Detective Cases #11 from Super Publications (CGC graded issue seen on eBay with publisher shown on card at top). Cover matches issue #11 of american series
Ranger Trails #21 - eBay auction says "So borrowing or trading for the book ( I don't remember which) I compared the two comics. Except for the cover these are absolutely the same...it has all the US ads. So This is Definitely Gunhawk #13." doesn't mention publisher specifically, assumed to be Bell.
Ranger Trails #15 - front and back cover shown in eBay auction. Back cover has generic Bell indicia.
Not sure why I have #17 as by Elhil...
Hi-Comics #11 - "This listing is for a copy of Hi-Comics 11, no date in indica. Indicia states only "Bell Features and Publishing". This is a Canadian comic that I cannot find in the overstreet guide. It contains stories originally printed in Timely / Atlas books.
Inside front cover: Doodleberries The Other Woman (5665) Girl Comics #?? (in upper right, number illegible) Love Is Where the Heart Is (5367) Death Be My Destiny (5402) No Escape (5795)"
Looks like a partial reprint of Girl Comics #1 - http://www.comics.org/issue/202853/ Doodleberries is, I believe, original to the Canadian version. Cover does not match US comic.
Young Romance - currently have Canadian series as published by Derby, but I think that must have been a guess. Indicia of issue 10 seen on eBay, states Publications Services Limited (73 Adelaide Street, West, Toronto, Ontario). Also indicia of issue 10 states just "10" as does cover. Auction states v2 #4, but this doesn't appear to be from book at all. Front Cover matches cover of US edition of #10. Back cover is ad for "Al Capps Shmoo Pen" from M.D.L. Book Company at 347/A Yonge Street, Toronto [347 Yonge Street later became Sam the Record Man!]
Western Outlaws and Sheriffs #70 - already have some info filled out from ebay auction. Cover matches american version of #70 and according to atlastales, the contents match as well (except for blank inside covers)
