Kalla kårar

Kalla kårar, a Swedish horror-comic anthology series launched by Pingvinförlaget in 1990, adapts the macabre spirit of classic EC Comics for a new audience. Over its five-issue run, the series draws heavily on the talents of legendary EC creators Al Feldstein, Bill Gaines, Jack Kamen, and Johnny Craig, while also featuring Swedish writer Johan Andreasson. Hosted by the familiar Crypt-Keeper, it delivers short, twist-ending tales of terror and dark humor. The series matters as a direct, licensed bridge between the iconic American horror comics of the 1950s and a modern Scandinavian readership.
