Comment: Ray Bradbury's effective story gets two version in this comic book, Corben's and An E.C. Classic, Al Williamson's. Both stories are overloaded by texts. Corben's art is moderate, but there's one interesting experimental theme he uses: extranarrow frames side by side to tighten tension. He uses three different variation of it in one comic and they all works brilliantly. Cf. "The Light at the End of the Tunnel".
Extra: Mr. Corben draw this story originally in 10 pages. To extend it 2 extra pages and a different page layouts was mostly needed for coloring, though the longer version is not necessarily the better version. Pages are more harmonic (as 12 pages), but some separate frames were better positioned in shorter version. And because of coloring and high details story would work better on larger size than just comic book.
