Style: B&W zipatone. Genre: SF. Time Span: Future. Nudity: Naked, voluptuous girl and naked men.
Keywords: Emergeny landing. Aliens. Prisoner. Escape.
Synopsis: Voluptuous girl makes an emergency landing and ends up as a prison of ant colony, until one of ants helps her escap.
Comment: One of Corben’s best B&W artwork. Male ant soldiers are mute or other way silent. Corben’s zipatones are just perfect. Voluptuous girl fits like a glove in a (well hunged, to be specific) male ant army. One of my personal favourites, though the ending sucks!
