Have you ever read any of the EC Comics adaptations of Ray Bradbury stories? I once checked out a book about EC Comics which reprinted three or four stories. One of them was an adaptation of Bradbury's "The October Game". At the end of that one I thought, "He didn't..." There was also one called "The Coffin" that involved a death-trap (They showed just the first page and the last one or two pages of that one in a section talking about the Ray Bradbury adaptations). The story behind EC Comics doing Ray Bradbury stories was pretty funny. They did one or two stories without permission, and Bradbury sent them a letter saying that there appeared to have been an oversight since he had not yet received a check. William Gaines sent a check and they worked out an agreement to do more adaptations.
