When I first got interested in comics and being an illustrator, this cover was the highlight for me from an art book I had picked up in the early 80's that was focused on this era of comics. I drew those aliens over and over growing up. So amazing to see the original. I'll have to see if I still have that book!

I remember seeing this cover pop up often in the '70's-era Overstreet Price Guides and thinking that it was a particularly striking image. Seeing the OA all these years later has been a real treat.
