Description
Where were Austin, Palmer and Janson way back when ?
Trying not to post too many mediocre pages on CAF, but as the possibility of nuclear apocalypse has once again entered our mind's eye, can only hope that the next one will be as fun as the one from my childhood, written by Joe Gill and drawn by a young ham-fisted John Byrne, with gigantic woolly mammoths and all ...

I wish my fist was as hammed as this! All the elements that make Byrne one of the greats are there in embryonic form.

Thank you. Agreed, How messy, unruly, the page look is what made buy it. Tend to love early, embryonic forms of any given artists more than their "mature" work.

Early Byrne shows off his flair for dramatic storytelling and willingness to go with thin lines for the heroes and heavy brush strokes for the Woolly Mammoth to make it more menacing.  It looks like a splash out of the Savage Land run with how he uses the space and how the figures are posed.

Loved Byrne pre X-men, and then again with his FF 232 + run, when he inked himself and tried to overrun Kirby. Which was a lost cause, but kind of sillily glorious.

Doomsday +1 fans unite!  It's great to see some more early Bryne, and a cool splash to boot, congrats!

Have a specific fondeness for early, not yet "mature", artist's works. Many pages in my collections are represented by "slightly above teenage years" works.
