The latest oversize, full color, hardcover volume in the Atlas Comics Library being published by Fantagraphics collects ten complete issues from the early 1950s:  Amazing Detective Cases #11-14 and Men’s Adventures #21-26.  These comics offer up a potent mix of crime and horror and are chock full of what-goes-around-comes-around karmic payback tales in the grand EC tradition.  Shiver As You Read!  includes great work by Bill Everett, B. Krigstein, Russ Heath, Gene Colan, John Romita, George Tuska, Joe Sinnott, Dick Ayers and more – including some of Fred Kida's best stories.  And while almost none of the stories have writing credits, it's a fairly safe bet that many if not most are scripted by Stan Lee.

Fanta sez: 

"The Eerie Escape" by B. Krigstein, "The Torture Master!" by Russ Heath, The Drowning Witch" by Reed Crandall and "The 3rd Corpse" by Bill Everett. Stories by Gene Colan, John Romita, Joe Sinnott, Dick Ayers, Jim Mooney, Paul Reinman and George Tuska, all of whom remained through the shift to Marvel Comics, additionally fill out these issues, along with Atlas regulars Fred Kida, Mort Lawrence, Mike Sekowsky and Myron Fass. Notably included is the first appearance of "Gorilla Man" by Robert Q. Sale, a character brought back in Marvel's contemporary Agents of Atlas series, and part of their ongoing continuity.
