1984 #4 - Alex Nino art

1984 #4

1984 (magazine) v1 #4, 1978 - Alex Nino illustrates a distant future where women are sacrificed to an unseen beatnik god. The artist employs an unusual and little used format, drawing the story vertically rather than horizontally. Additionally, he imposes a six and seven panel vertical grid on every page that extends an illusion of height. He varies the readers' points of view and carefully distributes black and white areas into graphic patterns. His weakest page is the opener, laden with too much text. Other artists in this bronze age science fiction magazine include Richard Corben, Jose Oritz, Estaban Maroto, Jim Janes, Rudy Nebres, Jose Gonzales, Abel Laxamana and Herb Arnold. Cover by Patirck Woodruff. This is 4 of 10 1984 issues by Nino. /// Nino gallery
