Chamber of Darkness #3 |
Chamber of Darkness v1 #3, 1970 - A relatively early effort by Barry Smith, a young couple awakens the spirit of a medieval warlock. Starting with an eye-catching splash of the conjurer's final moments, the artist uses innovative layouts to transition the story to modern times. Unlike many of his 1960s works, Smith benefits from the seasoned inks of Syd Shores. He smooths many of the rough edges while retaining the younger artist's spontaneity. This story was later reprinted in Giant-size Chillers v2 #3. Other artists in this bronze age comic include Tom Palmer, John Buscema and John Verpoorten. This is 1 of 2 Chamber of Darkness issues by Smith.
