Weird Science-Fantasy was a science fiction-fantasy anthology comic from the early 1950s. This comic was published by Bill Gaines (William Gaines) through his company, EC Comics (E.C. Comics), which he inherited from his father in 1947. Over a 14-month span, the comic ran for seven issues, starting in March 1954 with issue #23 and ending with issue #29 in June 1955. The comic, edited by Al Feldstein, was a merger of two previous bi-monthly titles, Weird Science and Weird Fantasy. This was the merger of the two earlier EC science fiction comic titles published by Bill Gaines (later publisher of Mad Magazine). They were Weird Science and Weird Fantasy. They did not sell nearly as well as the horror titles, but Gaines and Feldstein loved science fiction, and they stuck by these titles, although when sales declined, they combined them into this single title, which then further changed to "Incredible Science Fiction". Since the ending of publication, all of the EC comics have been reprinted many, many times, in many formats, and there have been several movies and TV series based on them!
