These are all new stories in the Tales From The Crypt style. The first issue was published in June of 2007, with a cover drawn by Kyle Baker. The artwork is different from the original 1950s comic books but you get used to it after a while. It’s drawn in the new 2000s style and they actually look very good. Issue 1 contains 2 stories:
