Journey #6 [1984]
Illustrated letter by Larry Marder
This is the first of the many letter column illustrations by Marder to appear in William Messner-Loebs comic JOURNEY. It’s a great example of how Marder was able to make the very simple designs very expressive, as the Bean figure in this one speaks volumes about his enthusiasm for the comic he just read and the worlds it opens up.
