WEIRD SCIENCE No. 14 Author: Place: Publisher: Date: Description: EC (Indicia: "Fables Publishing Co., Inc."). July-August, 1952. VG/Fine (5.0). Nice clean copy. Crease running parallel to spine, transverse crease to near spine (close to lady's elbow). Cover slightly misfolded and trimmed, so that a bit too much white shows at spine and the "OD" are missing from Wood's signature. 2mm tear to edge of back cover, spine toned at back cover. Penciled distributor's mark to back cover ("52"). Off-white pages. Wood cover. Plots and scripts by Gaines and Feldstein. Art by Wood, Elder, Check and Orlando. Feldstein and Wood's "There's Be Some Changes Made!" is another story that would have raised alarms if EC's critics had bothered reading the text rather than just scanning the pictures for objectionable content. It's the story of an astronaut who marries a beautiful woman on an alien world. It turns out that after a certain number of years, the ladies of this world metamorphosize into men, resulting in what must be the first same-sex marriage in comics. "'There'll Be Some Changes Made' had to be proof positive that Feldstein was willing to try anything, no matter how far out, in his science fiction comics." —Doug Menville, The Complete Weird Science. A limited edition of 100 softcover and 15 hardcover catalogues are available. Over 200 pages, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcovers $40, dust-jacketed hardcover with limitation plate $200. To order, contact ivan@pbagalleries.com or visit: https://www.pbagalleries.com/content/comics/. R. Crumb says, "I found [PBA's catalogue] so interesting that I am saving it for the texts that accompany the comics which were put up for auction. This is some of the best commentary I’ve yet seen on the quality of the content of comic books. I especially enjoyed the reviews of the post-war horror comics. Great. Priceless." Consignments welcome for PBA's Spring 2021 Comic Book sale. Pre-Code Horror, Golden Age and Silver Age comics, original art and ephemera sought. Send inquiries to ivan@pbagalleries.com.
