Description

In the 1980s, the three American television networks of the day (NBC, ABC, CBS) competed with lavish mini-series budgeted far higher than their usual fare. NBC offered a story so big it took two mini-series a year apart to tell, asking what the United States would do if it were put in the position of Vichy France. Aliens euphemistically dubbed "Visitors" (hence the "V") claim they come in peace but quickly turn America into a collaborating totalitarian regime which is ultimately freed by a brand of brave rebels.

The success of the original story led to a brief ongoing TV series and comic book series, neither of which managed to keep the magic going for very long. The comic book featured DC stalwart Cary Bates, writing for Infantino (returned from a stint drawing Star Wars for Marvel) and DeZuniga.

In this issue, the Resistance suffers a major setback, as their base is overtaken by the aliens. They flee with an apparent child-sized alien defector, but even that is a ruse to place a spy in their midst. DeZuniga's hand in this page seems heavier than Infantino's.

Lydia was just as hot as a conniving second in command to Diana. Very pretty DeZuniga art on the ladies. The Faye Grant hair is phenomenal.
