Outer Space #21 - Steve Ditko cover

Outer Space #21, 1959 - Despite the annoying size and placement of a contest graphic, Steve Ditko delivers a more than capable science fiction cover. Human captives are tethered to a small spacecraft, while an alien ship looms in the distance. The diminishment of the figures nicely form the perspective, leading the eye toward the background. Other artists in this issue include Sal Trapani and E. H. Hart. This is number 4 of 4 Outer Space issues with Ditko art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Ditko or Outer Space issues.
