Wow, I had no idea there would be so much interest in this old project.
Well, I do have a few original Tales from the Crypt and Weird Science comics from the 50's and they seem to be just about the same size as the comic I got from Savini's friend. THere's only a difference of about a centimeter or so.
Ill just conform it to about that size.

Just the cover. The inside is simply a random comic.
oh ok. well i really hope this project is going well. i also thought about replicating the comic, using some of the shots in the movie as the comic panels by editing in PS just like you said, but im just not that knowledgeable in that department. so thats why im depending on you man! and so are other people! im a huge fan of creepshow and other horror comics and ive always wanted that prop comic and you can most likely make it happen! 
whenever you get it done let me know, man. keep in touch!

His name is Rick Catizone, he has a website Ivisited hoping to find some pics of his work for Creepshow but there wasn't.
I thought there would have been stills of the comic on the special edition DVD after reading an interview of a guy involved in the project saying that he had access to it.
Unfortunately, the Comic does appear but for only 5 seconds!!
I decided to write directly to Mr Catizone
I emailed him to ask if he could put some on his website but even if he kindly replied to my message, he never did.
Maybe you should try with him since I believe he's living in Pittsburgh...

My CREEPSHOW comic book - "1st Issue Collectors' Edition!" - YouTube
Found this video of a custom Creepshow comic on YouTube, actually it was this vid that led me to stumble upon this particualr thread (though coincidentally, I discovered this forum earlier this week while researching custom NOES 3 - Dream Warriors prop houses).
Anywho, the inside appears to be one of the EC Comics Annuals published by Gemstone Publsihing in the mid-90's. These so-called "annuals" were basically the collected trade paperback versions of EC Rerpints, and surprisingly you can still pick these bad boys up from Russ Chochran's website for under $10 each (shhh, don't tell everybody).
The guy that posted this vid of his custom Creepshow comic prop goes by the handle of "creepshowcreep". What do you guys think? I personally like it, though I'm fairly certain it will be surpassed in authenticity by what Darth Saber has cookin'...

Hello Darth Saber!
I would like to help you in the project.
I believe that we could capture the screens of the movie and create the panels for the comic.
We could apply a filter in Photoshop and convert the images into drawings.
Would you be interested in my help?
Congratulations for you project.

Darth Saber, I remember seeing Creepshow in the theater when I was 12. It was my first horror film. I think the work you are doing is a wonderful thing, and I thank you for it. If I can be of help in any way, message me. If you decide to offer the front and back of Creepshow, I am 100% interested.
