Oracle #1, pg. 2 splash - Topaz

"For millenia… this was 'Home System'…for the galaxy."

Perez had already made leaps and bounds with his storytelling and creativity by the late ‘70s. The Oracle fanzine and "Death Star" story really benefitted from George's advances in techniques, like this visage of Topaz laid over a swirling and roiling cosmos! Had to flip a coin on if this was a splash page or not--splash!
