Octobriana & Luther Arkwright
The character Octobriana helps Luther in the basement of the pyramid to escape the disruptors that were trying to steal the Firefrost.

The Adventures of Luther Arkwright had a start-and-stop publication history, beginning in 1978 and not being completed until 1989. The first parts of the story appeared as a five-part serial in the British underground comic Near Myths in 1978–1980.

The story continued in the comic’s anthology pssst! in 1982. After five more episodes, however, the story was interrupted when pssst! was cancelled, less than half complete. Before shutting down, pssst!'s publisher, Serge Boissevain, collected all the Luther Arkwright stories — including the material from Near Myths — in a trade paperback called The Adventures of Luther Arkwright Book 1: Rat Trap. Between 1987 and 1989 Talbot completed the story, which was published as a series of nine standard comic books by Valkyrie Press, followed, at readers' request, by a tenth issue, titled ARKeology, containing articles about the history and production of the comic and some extended back story and character information.

Very fine stippling technique when the lighting is at a premium within the cavernous walls.  Octobriana looks more buff and fit than our hero!
