Here's a kool project that, unfortunately, never reached fruition.
You'd think combining elements of Little Nemo in SlumberLand with Flash Gordon should've been an easy sell in the 1960s.
But, this two-page labor of love by writer Len (Mars Attacks) Brown and Al (Flash Gordon) Williamson was presented to the syndicates at a time when the only adventure strips were "legacy" series with an already-existing following.
So, it was consigned to the dustbin of history, published in the same 1962 issue of the b/w fan/prozine Fantasy Illustrated that last Thursday's "Life Battery" originally-appeared in.
They've popped up several times since, at least once at original art size!

A great shame. It's beautiful work.
