She's Leav'n Home by Mike Kaluta

What a beautiful picture, and, a decade before that, what a beautiful song.  I think McCartney and Lennon really outdid themselves on this particular tune, and to me, the best of much greatness on Sgt. Pepper's

Nucleus #8 Cover by Berni Wrightson












First image cut (in haste) out of a 1970s adzine, either Mirkwood Times or The Buyer's Guide.  As I said before, it shoulda been the cover to the first appearance of King Kull.  drats

Creeper #1 by Steve Ditko












Genius.  A few of my fav images from the second issue (first real issue was a DC Showcase, with the all-time greatest origin story).  Although the splash credits The Shagmeister (?) with dialog, I suspect Ditko also influenced the fact that most of the story is told through thought balloons.  wow
