Ghosts #77 - Steve Ditko art

Ghosts #77

Ghosts v1 #77, 1979 - The cruelty of a lion tamer leads to a series of haunting events at a circus. Steve Ditko has a noticeably difficult time rendering lions and tigers. Their anatomy appears stiff and unnatural. That aside, the artist does a capable job overall. A noteworthy scene is the nighttime conversation between the lion tamer and his colleagues (page 6). Their faces are dramatically drawn, balancing both moonlight and shadow. Other artists in this bronze age comic include E.R. Cruz, Bernard Baily and Buddy Grenale. This is 1 of 2 Ghosts issues by Ditko.
