The Boys from Derby: "Lifelong Companion" by Gill and Staton

What it is, Groove-ophiles! How 'bout a sci-fi shocker courtesy a couple'a Joes from Derby's Charlton Comics, Gill and Staton? Yeah, Ol' Groove thought you might dig that idea. This one, "Lifelong Companion", was published in Ghostly Haunts #35 (July 1973), but it could just have easily been published in Haunted Love since it's as much a love story as a sci-fi fable.








Ain't AI love grand?
