Talk about establishing your credentials... Alan Moore bursts on the US Comic scene with a masterpiece, a multi-toned, multi-faceted symphony of beautifully entangled stories, illustrated with aplomb by a dazzling cohort of artists who have given their best to magnify the tales. Ample proof on this page...

Wonderful comment! Can't be said any better

The page is perfection. The description clearly needs work. You are meant to gush in a paragraph and page filling manner that can occassionally veer into verbosity, when what I call a Graily Mc Grail is located and acquired. You need to elaborate on the importance the sublime art and story had on you and how  handling a piece of paper with marks on it fills a craving most will never know or achieve. To a more casual viewer who is unaware of the importance and rarity of this work, your own words, " It is the fulfillment of a dream I've had since I was 16." sounds like you have been dreaming about guys in helmets since you were a teenager. Have to head off now and dream of owning the Betty splash. You know the one. 

Hahaha! Yes, I do know the one. Sweet dream for sure!

Whoa!  Great page. It is amazing how the Dude improved so much from issue to issue. This is such a grail piece that you probably don't want any of your other Nexus pages and will be happy to sell them to me. I'm here for you, brother!

Doug thank you brother. That's really kind

Regarding what you said in your description, " Ps- My undying gratitude to Marc K" it raises the implication that you are an immortal! Should we start calling you Highlander or Nosferatu? Or perhaps you had a dip in the fountain of youth? There are many possibilities. Reveal your secrets, immortal one. Are you related to the elder gods? If so, what is Cthulhu like and did you whisper weird tales into Lovecrafts ear as he slept? What are shoggoths like as pets? Did I mention that I like Steve Rudes art?

Peter, your comments slay me! Lol

Can you imagine the sense of awe being at the EC offices when Wally unveiled this masterpiece? This level of work is what established Wood as the genius he was. The art certainly has found its proper home in your amazing collection Tom. Congratulations and thank you for continuing to be so generous in sharing it with us all!

I think those guys really spurred each other on!  Would have been such a treat to behold beauties like this walk into the office for sure.  And thanks for the nice comments - it's my pleasure!

Wood was so judicious in his use of Craftint that it's very unusual to see him use a full board. He does so to great effect here.  One of his best Sci-Fi EC splash pages, which is to say, simply, one of his best!  Congrats Tom!

Great observation about the Craftint!  So true.  Woody was clearly full of vim and vigor, and loads of inspiration when he created this one.  Couldn't agree more that it is one of his very best EC splashes
