Wallace Wood: Against the Grain, part 31
EC’s system of pre-lettered pages appealed to Wood, who adopted this approach as his own personal method over the following decades. After Leroy lettering by Jim Wroten (on the Feldstein-edited titles), the pages were passed on to the artists. “I think this had a lot to do with why the stuff was as good as it was,” said Wood. “When we got those pages, lettered and all, all we had to do was go home and draw and not worry about a thing. We didn’t have to show pencils. We brought in the finished product, and we could do just about anything we wanted to do.”
