POST # 7 - "UFO" by Tim Conrad













In the mid 1970's Tim Conrad's art started popping up here and there, mostly in Marvel's 'Conan' related publications, and at first Conrad seemed to be a kind of Barry Smith-influenced wannabe...that is, that Smith-influenced style appeared to be his only 'flavor'. Although to this day he continues to produce wonderful comic work mostly in the Robert E. Howard vein, Tim Conrad has proven himself to be more than just a Smith clone.


One of the reasons I love this particular Conrad story so much is that he gets to show off a more reality-based style, and he does it with such a different flair it's almost as if a whole new artist stepped in. From Marvel's EPIC ILLUSTRATED # 7, 1981, here is ...UFO!
