What is The EC Archives: Weird Science Volume 1 (The Ec Archives) about?

<i>The EC Archives</i> is an effort to preserve, for future generations of comic art aficionados and scholars, what is generally considered to be the greatest line of comic books ever published, the Entertaining Comics (EC) line, originally published as regular ten-cent comic books from 1950 through 1955. These comic books were important for a number of reasons: they brought a new, higher level of writing and artwork to the medium of comics, they were popular with young adults as well as children (one large contingent of EC readers was the servicemen serving in the Armed Forces), they were the first to identify and elevate the comic-book artists to "star status" with the readers, and they provoked a huge outcry from public-minded groups (and a certain psychiatrist) who maintained that horror comics in particular, and most comic books in general, were a root cause of the explosion of juvenile delinquency in the 1950's.
