Spellbound #29 - Steve Ditko art

Spellbound #29

Spellbound v1 #29, 1956 - Distraught by financial woes, a carnival ride owner wanders off and encounters equally sad beings from another world. Told in four concise pages, Steve Ditko uses an impressive amount of artistic details without sacrificing the story. His first panel is a myriad of figures and shapes within the merry chaos of an amusement park. Just as interesting is his almost statuesque rendering of the aliens on page three, panel five (see interior page shown below). Amidst these wonderfully drawn pages is Ditko's modest signature, quietly inserted on the bottom of a ticket booth (page 1). Other artists in this golden age comic include Jack Abel, Bill Draut, Bob Forgione, Al Hartley, Tony Mortellaro, George Roussos and Robert Q. Sale. Cover by John Severin.
