Watchmen #4 pg 28 Pencils Variant

From Joseph Melchior, “Rare unpublished Watchmen page featuring Dr Manhattan on Mars. Drawn for the series in 1986 but discarded when Dave decided to change the layout. A historical glimpse into the creative process. Hand lettering is also by Dave. Large Art - 13 x 20”. The Einstein quote is a stat.”

Completely thrilled to add this grail piece to my collection!

In comparing this page to the published artwork there are subtle differences but it’s remarkable how consistent they are. Gibbons is a true master of his craft.
