Description
An extremely rare (surviving) example of a 1960s Steve Ditko Superhero cover - from Dell's NUKLA # 4 (1966). Forgettable title that only lasted 4 issues (the first three issues of this title sported NO Ditko art). Ditko's art is nothing short of awesome - combining superhero art within science-fiction trappings!

Very cool, Terry--glad to see some of this survived! Not a part of Ditko's "pantheon" that's remembered or reporduced often. But I have to ask if he inked everything on this on? Those faces look too "normal" or "sterotypically heroic" compared to his usual work. Is it possible another hand did those? Just curious. Thanks for posting this piece!

Oops, Sal Trapani inks - nice bit of detective work, Mike!
