Brian wants to know who drew the art for one of Stephen King’s first published stories?
This is World of Mystery, an alternative feature to Pop Culture Questions Answered, where I share the occasional question where I cannot solve the questions myself, and so I put it to you folks.
While it wasn’t his first PAID work, since his fanzine stories were done just for the sake of publication, Stephen King’s first work published by someone other than his own self-published work was in the pages of Mike Garrett’s Comics Review in 1965, which published three chapters of “Steve King’s story, “I Was a Teenage Grave Robber”
Then, working with another fanzine editor, future comic book superstar, Marv Wolfman, King adapted the story into a story for Wolfman’s horror fanzine, Stores of Suspense #2, as “In a Half World of Terror.”
Wolfman himself helped draw the image that went with the story, but I wonder who the OTHER artist was.
Here’s the best shot of the signature I can find…
Any ideas anyone?
