Alice in Terrorland -- another memorable Golden Age tale by Alex Toth



From Lost Worlds number 5:







A Golden Age Black Terror adventure by Ruben Moreira

For a largely forgotten character, the Black Terror had an exceptional run both in terms of popularity and durability and was associated with some extraordinarily talented people including Jerry Robinson and Mort Meskin, Moreira, and, believe it or not, Patricia Highsmith.

A humble text page from one of science fiction's best short story writers

Jerome Bixby will always be remembered as the author of one of the creepiest stories ever written (not to mention possibly the best episode of Star Trek) but even he had to pay the rent.

From Lost Worlds number 5:





Another Golden Age tale from Alex Toth

From the Comics Reporter
Above any artist ever to work in comics, Alex Toth enjoyed a career that cannot be properly summarized via a credits list. Toth is better remembered for an approach to work -- perfectly spotted blacks, supple line work that can create an entire visual world in fewer marks on the page than anyone would ever believe, and a visually sophisticated approach to storytelling that relied as much on shadow and hints and continuity across panels as it did on any effect borrowed from film.
