The Land Unknown / Four Color v2 #845 - Alex Toth art + Specialty issue

Four Color v2 #845

The Land Unknown v1 / Four Color v2 #845, 1957 - One of Alex Toth's earliest stories for Dell, this sci-fi adaptation is based on the Universal Pictures film of the same name. Although better known for his impressionistic style, his artwork here is streamlined and polished. Despite some unusual renditions of dinosaurs, his drawings of the main characters are thoughtful and expressive. Toth effectively captures both the frozen landscape of Antarctica and the lush vegetation of a prehistoric forest. This is 1 of 1 Land Unknown issues by Toth. /// key Specialty issue (movie)
