Usually I wait until the end of a column to make a judgment, but screw that, this was a terrible idea. People were incensed, but now that some time's passed, we should be able to evaluate it objectively.
It's been a few years since the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark trilogy got a major facelift, replacing Stephen Gammell's art/living nightmares with Brett Helquist's tamer take on the urban legends, folktales, and general creepiness collected by Alvin Schwartz.
