| The Rook #13 |
The Rook v1 #3, 1979 - Contrasting against the title's science fiction theme,
Alex Toth engages readers with a 1930s-era adventure (originally intended for a French publisher). Jesse Bravo, a Hollywood stunt pilot, finds himself embroiled in a mystery involving gangsters and aristocrats. Writer as well as artist, Toth has full command of the storytelling. His artwork pays homage to the serialized newspaper adventure strips of past decades. Perfectly paced and laid out, the pages display a mastery and splendor not often seen in black and white. The story continues into the next issue. Other artists in this bronze age science fiction magazine include Lee Elias and Alfredo Alcala. Cover by Bob Larkin. This is 1 of 2
