Reading Room VANGUARD ILLUSTRATED "Be It What It Will, I'll Go To It Laughing"

A title based on a line from Moby-Dick becomes appropriate...
...when you reach the last page of the story!
If you don't get the reference, Ray Bradbury penned the screenplay for the 1956 Moby Dick movie.
Written by David Campiti and illustrated by Tom Yeates, this never-reprinted story from Pacific Comics' Vanguard Illustrated #3 (1984) is a sincere tribute to Bradbury and other SF creators, though overwritten and a bit too "self-fanservice" for my taste.
The underappreciated Tom Yeates' superb artwork compensates for that, and makes reading it worthwhile.
