I'm like Highlander!
Great to see you post these pages. They need to be shared. It was a hard choice deciding which story to part with and I am pretty sure you I should have kept this one:) I am glad it is with you and among the other great pieces in your colelction.

That image is so amazing. Wood at the top of his game. And, a complete story to boot! Wonderful!

Having had the opportunity to pour over each of these 8 pages while hanging out at Jeff's house, I can honestly say that they are even more exquisite than these great scans make them appear. Superb work by one of the finest craftsmen to ever work in comics. Congrats, Chris!

Stop your mining right now,
Better think of the future,
Time to straighten right out,
Creating problems stake down

Stake your moon in right down,
Time to leave it right now.
Better think of Earth's future
Else you'll wind up with fail.

Fabulous art and a great story! I'm glad to see the story wasn't broken up. The best way to fully appreciate EC comics is to see the original art together in complete stories. Wally Wood's art together with Al Feldstein's stories are the best of the best!. Congratulations!

It's about this time when Wally's EC work began to really shine. I missed out on the Weird Science art auctions via Cochran but a few years later, in the early 1980s, got in on the Weird Fantasy art . . . and it was with Weird Fantasy # 11 that I bought my first complete Wood science-fiction story! Great to see Wally's work finding new appreciative owners who recognize his landmark contributions to strip-illustration!

No, not the complete book, it was a complete Wood story, 'The 10th at Noon!" (6 pages). I then went on to buy two more Wood stories from WF #s 12 and 13.
