Description

I remember reading this comic and thinking that Deathlok was super cool.
The first badass cyborg.

This story/art was written, pencilled, and inked by the late, great Rich Buckler in 1974.

It is historic for being an early appearance of Deathlok...and...one of the earliest horizontal, sideways panel pages...with 13 glorious panels.

Buckler was on to something...this one panel page displays like a 2 page DPS.

I am very lucky/happy to own another piece of my childhood.

Sweet page! Some say Buckler was at his best when he did his Deathlok run! It came out about the time when our current crop of art dealers started collecting and it was an early target of them.

I think you are right. We don't see many of these pages on CAF or out in the marketplace.
