the man in black

After health problems forced Russ Manning to leave the Star Wars strip at close of "The Frozen World of Ota," Russ Helm (aka Archie Goodwin) and beloved veteran artist Alfredo Alcala came aboard for "Planet of Kadril." As you know, I do not claim to be an expert by any means, but I'm fairly certain this story has not been officially reprinted. Dig the crazy threads on our heroes...

strips from October 5 and 6, 1980.
