AVON'S STRANGE WORLDS began publication in November of 1950. This science fiction title is a
venerable showcase of amazing talent. There are scripts by Gardner Fox, John Michel and Henry
Kuttner and as fantastic as the writing is, it's the artwork that makes AVON'S STRANGE WORLDS
such a remarkable series. Just some of the artists for this title are Wally Wood, Carmine Infantino,
Joe Kubert, George Roussos, Everett Raymond Kinstler, Frank Frazetta, Al Williamson, Roy Krenkel,
George Tuska, Norman Nodell, Vince Alascia, Harry Lazarus, Syd Shores, Gene Fawcette, John
Rosenberger and Werner Roth. Any fan of E.C.'s WEIRD SCIENCE and WEIRD FANTASY comics will
definitely enjoy this collection.
AVON'S STRANGE WORLDS contains STRANGE WORLDS #1-9 and #18-19 (There were no issues #10-
17). Although issues #20-22 were published, they were war/battle comics, not science-fiction. While
battle comics are great in themselves, we decided to keep them separate, and give you the science
fiction content. This edition has all the great art and stories one could hope for but without the pesky
and redundant advertisements.
