Description

Tom Yeates Alien Encounters #1 Complete 4-Page Story "Watcher from the Skies" (FantaCo Enterprises, 1981). Yeates achieves an EC Comics-style excellence in a compact and merciless story about the 18th Century's slave-trafficking trade and a violent comeuppance for one crew of slavers. The story represents a transitional phase from the Underground Comix movement of the 1960s-70s into the independent-comics boom of the earlier 1980s. Ink and Zipatone shading film over graphite on Bristol board. Image area, 10" x 15".
Story by Bill Kelley.
Provenance: Heritage Auctions.
It's obvious that Bill Kelley lifted inspiration from EC's Judgement Day (by Joe Orlando), especially the last panel. See additional image.

This sort of twist ending never gets old. Congrats on a nice-looking story Lars!
