The EC Archives series of trade paperbacks and hardcovers seem like a random mess of titles.
For example, The EC Archives: Tales from the Crypt. These volumes can be found mixed up in these series titles
- EC Archives: Tales From The Crypt
- EC Archives: Tales From The Crypt (EC)
- EC Archives: Tales From The Crypt HC / TP
Another example, The EC Archives: Shock SuspenStories.
- Shock SuspenStories (Archives)
- EC Archives: Shock Suspenstories TP
- EC Archives: Shock Suspenstories HC
- EC Archives: Shock Suspenstories. Vol. 2
- EC Archives: Shock Suspenstories. Vol. 1
I suspect that should be cleaned up one entry per with the Gemstone, GC Press and Dark Horse reprints as issues A, B, C if required. Or, as three series each split by publisher Gemstone, GC Press and DarkHorse. I’d love to see the series with The as a prefix with it removed in the sort title field.
Here is a Wiki entry with some publication years and ISBN numbers of the first prints.
