Unusual Tales #19 - non-attributed Matt Baker art & cover

Matt Baker

Unusual Tales v1 #19, 1959 - Suffering from depression, a commercial artist creates an ink blot that suddenly obliterates everything in its path. This odd (non-attributed) Matt Baker tale seems hurriedly drawn and executed. Vince Colletta's inks hamper it further with its minimal application. Baker's large opening panel reveals a tad more effort, but not enough to compensate for the entire story. For economy's sake, the publisher re-appropriates the panel for the cover illustration (see cover shown above). Other artists in this golden age comic include Sal Trapani. This is 1 of 2 Unusual Tales issues by Baker.
