TheEyeSees Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Hard to pick a fav Wolverton cover out of this run. But that #5 is literally out of this world. Just a fantastic cover. #2 has always been a favourite of mine as well. Great pick ups!!! A friend of mine owns the WTOTF #2 rough sketches by Wolverton ... here's what the cover might have looked like (with notes): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayman Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 That is very cool! Thanks for sharing! I like the paragraph that says "this has no connection with the two enclosed synopsis." That could be said for the cover art of almost any horror comic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayman Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 This sketch jogged a memory about Wolverton NOT drawing the women on some of these covers. Am I remembering correctly that another artist added the women or did Basil draw the Beauties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
