Scrooge Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Such a distinctive cover It's a weird one. They took panels from Wolverton's story Nightmare World in the previous issue, and some other artist drew the woman in the foreground. I remember that but the winning ticket is the way the sky is handled for me. That's much different than most cover circa that time period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like that too, it's on the third issue as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of fine, fine lines on those pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also used it on 2 for the sky, as well as for the sides of the buildings. Such a great style. I like the way he uses an almost cross hatching style to create texture on his creatures, especially on the 5, which is my favourite cover in the run.

Actually, the "wood cut" style is attributed more to Matt Fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
