A Limited Edition Art Print (with art by Florian Bertmer; 1/30; measures 18" x 24" [46 x 61 cm]) (Learn More) The Vault of Horror was an American bi-monthly horror comic anthology series 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. Along with its sister titles, The Haunt of Fear and Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror was popular, but in the late 1940s and early 1950s comic books came under attack from parents, clergymen, schoolteachers and others who believed the books contributed to illiteracy and juvenile delinquency. With the subsequent imposition of a highly restrictive Comics Code, E.C. Comics publisher Bill Gaines cancelled The Vault of Horror and its two companion horror titles in September 1954. The Vault of Horror hit newsstands with its April/May 1950 issue (which was #12, because it took over from War Against Crime, which was cost-saving for the publisher!) and ceased publication with its December/January 1955 issue (#40), producing a total of 29 issues. This was one of three EC horror comic titles published by Bill Gaines (later publisher of Mad Magazine). 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!
