The Boys from Derby (Two-fer!): "The Metamorph" and "Escape from Vipon" by Pellowski and Boyette
Greetings, Groove-ophiles! Over the past few years, we've looked back at all of Charlton's color Space: 1999 comics--except for the final ish, #7 (August 1976)--what's up with that? So today, Ol' Groove is gonna rectify that sitch by sharing both of Mike Pellowski and Pat Boyette's mini-epics from that fateful final ish, "The Metamorph" (which features the origin of Maya) and "Escape from Vipon"! Dig 'em!
Has there ever been a comicbook Artist (and I mean Artist with a capital A) that has ever been as underrated as the late Pat Boyette? Just beautiful work that does what it's supposed to.Tell a story. He was praised by creative people, including Frank Thorne, Steranko and Alex Toth. No slouches in the storytelling department, those three.
