   By Peter B. Gillis
Some mighty impressive art here. Lou Cameron reying, as usual, twice as hard as necessary--but it seems to me that Ken Rice net,"oh yeah? Get a load of this!" And Louis Zansky here looks like he's stopped trying to be ordinary, too. I'm impressed!

A distinctly symbolic cover, here, with the apparent, "Hand of fate" character? Pretty interesting.
