It's crazy to think how work of this quality and vintage is so ridiculously affordable even four decades on. Nice addition, artless!

I complety agree, Ruben. I won this on a thrill bid and was delighted it came my way without having to spend anywhere near what I would naively expect it to cost in 2024. Lots of nostalgia for me with this book, and it was such a pioneering effort from all the creators, including and especially Hampton

Did I see this at your place, or is it new? I know Scott took really good care of these pages, so I'm sure it looks even better in person than this scan. Great page buddy! Congrats!

This is a new one for me, but not my first Silverheels page, as you know! Can't get enough of this classic tale

Everything screams inhospitable, from the trapped-box design, to the dark colors drowning the red, to the posing of the main character. Congrats on a real beauty!

Great observations! Hampton uses the panel sizes and relationships, camera angles, poses, lighting, color and of course the expressions to get the story and vibe across. I really like the lifeless terrain here, which contrasts so much with the lush jungle scenes in the book, which was my motivation for picking up a previous page in this story.

One, two, three, four
April Jones Scott Hampton
We were goin' down
I can feel the sinkin'
But then its paint around
And everyone Zaboik before
Flashed before my eyes
And Hampton mattered even more
I looked into the lines
Well we all want something better and
We wished that Hampton drew
Well we all want something beautiful
I wish for something new
Been lookin' for a reason and
Something from Bruce
Silverheel come down (when the heels come down)
Silverheel touch ground (when the heels touch ground)
And you feel like Zaboik's over
There's a tentacle for you
Silverheel come down (when the wheels come down)

I hadn't thought of it as a romantic page, but I see it in a new light now...!
