Witzend #3 - Wally Wood art & cover, Steve Ditko, Frank Frazetta art + 1st Mr. A

Wally Wood

Witzend v1 #3, 1967 - Several great artists are represented in the third issue of this early fanzine. A previously unpublished Frank Frazetta adventure tale from the 1950s finally sees light. Wally Wood's contributes a brief Pipsqueak Papers feature. Perhaps most noteworthy is Steve Ditko's introduction of Mister A, a character used to propagate his own libertarian philosophies. The work of all three artists is admirable, despite only being in black and white. Wood's oddly conceived cover is perhaps the weakest part of the book. This is 3 of 5 Witzend issues by Frazetta, 3 of 10 Witzend issues by Wood and 1 of 5 Witzend issues by Ditko. /// key 1st appearance Mister A
