Volume 4 -1st printing. "August 1957 to July 1958!" Collects Strange Suspense Stories (1952-1965 Fawcett/Charlton) #33-37.
Charlton Comics' Strange Suspense Stories boasted a host of talents: Bill Molno, Sal Trapani, Don Perlin, Bill Fraccio, Maurice Whitman, Charles Nicholas, Richard Doxsee and Gene Colan among many. The real jewel was Steve Ditko whose moody, individualistic touch came to dominate Charlton's supernatural titles and, of course, led to deserved fame over at Marvel and with a kid called Parker. But before that, Charlton's shining light was nowhere near as bright as in the run of Strange Suspense Stories, issues 33 through 37 (August 1957 to July 1958).
So don't miss your chance and check out our fourth five-comic volume!
Hardcover, 184 pages, full color.

Volume 1 -1st printing. "June 1952 to February 1953!" Collects Strange Suspense Stories (1952-1965 Fawcett/Charlton) #1-5.
Cover by Sheldon Moldoff.
The still much maligned ranks of SF comicdom are swelled with the welcome and long overdue re-emergence this month of the first volume from PS Publishing of Fawcett Comics' wonderful Strange Suspense Stories. Harking from the very early 1950s, this stuff is priceless, choc-full as it is with work from the likes of Sheldon Moldoff, Bob Powell, Bernard Baily, Mike Sekowsky, George Evans, Lou Cameron, Mo Marcus, Charles Nicholas and Doug Wildey. We're kind of excited already at the prospect of follow-up volumes of Fawcett strangeness.

Volume 2 -1st printing. "Feb. 1955 to Aug. 1955!" Collects This is Suspense (1955) #23-26.
Charlton Comics fared poorly when measured against the big guns of DC and Marvel, and that's a shame because they had lots to offer! Check out this five-comic volume featuring This Is Suspense #23-26 (Feb. 1955 to Aug. 1955) and the slightly renamed pre-Ditko Strange Suspense Stories, picking up the numbering with #27 in October of 1955. Say what you will (and we know you will!), Charlton had lots to offer, with much of it being fairly serious and semi-adult, with a contributor line-up that boasted Ted Galindo, Dick Giordano, Wally Wood, George Evans, Lou Morales, Pete Morisi, Vic Martin, Marc Swayze, Don Heck, Bill Molno, Sid Check and Stan Campbell. Buy it and show off to lesser mortals!
