Going back to the 1980s.... Silvermaigne's first failed attempt as a comic strip. One person drew the first part but for the "victims scene" used newspaper photos of road accidents and inked over the figures. As soon as I saw that I said "no" as if you cannot draw four people standing around a blanket covered body you cannot draw a comic. As it was the artist was a never-hear-from-again.

Then another artist and I think his name was Kieron or Karl(?) Earl -I keep telling people to write names and contact details on the back of art! The first part was drawn and...the artist was never heard from again despite my having sent the script for part 2. Then we have a page by Terry Ford (who drew Torch of Vengeance reprinted in Tales of Terror 1). Ford left comics and after what happened with Space Junk comic I'm not surprised.
Oh...then I found the first page at the bottom of a box. Not a coffin but a box. Honest.

I believe that these are all of the art pages that survived.
