Description

This follows the last 2 Terry and the Pirates I posted where the friends are stranded and starving on a desert island when they hear music and follow that in this daily. The next daily I post in a few days is an important one and many credit it as being the point where Terry really got interesting. By this point, it was already interesting! Look at that lighting in the third and forth panel...Milt was on to something.

Oh yeah, baby, let's get to the next one! And the ones that follow!

You can see the strip is rounding into form as the first two panels are nowhere as tight as the last two without the darker lighting.

Not to mention the brushwork on the foliage in the earlier panels. Sickles' contributions beginning here?

I want to read this story; these are glorious.

Good thing I've subscribed to the new Clover Press / LoAC reprints and they've released this story. Now to find the time!

Love the transition in lighting, staging, and solidity of the figures.
