| Twilight Zone #9 |
Twilight Zone v2 #9, 1964 - No Alex Toth art, despite what some comic book price guides say. There are resemblances, but closer inspection reveals another artist's hand (perhaps Fred Fredericks?). This was not uncommon given that Toth's style was copied throughout the 50s and 60s. The artist's work does appear in Twlight Zone #3 and #4. Other artists in this silver age horror comic include Joe Certa and Jack Sparling. Cover by George Wilson.

I agree, it is not even close to being Toth. My vote is that the artwork would have to be Jim Aparo's.
Nah, on second thought it looks more like Frank Springer's work.
I'm not 100% certain but I agree with lively that it bears a marked resemblance to Frank Springer.

Something about the face in the final panel makes me agree that it's Thorne but it COULD be Frank Bolle. I don't see a trace of Aparo and I'm fairly sure neither he nor Springer were working for Gold Key during that period.
Booksteve,
I agree with you that this is too early to be Aparo, who began at Charlton in 1966 or 1967. As far as Bolle, I'm not that familiar with his artwork in this period so I'd have to reserve judgement.
