Such a cool page!

But, it’s those middle panels, it looks like Terry did the shadows by hand! Or, am I mistaken and it’s zip/dry transfer stuff?

I thought it was zip-a-tone in person, but I could be wrong

Doesn’t look like zip to me.

Towards the last bit of their run, Terry seemed to use a lot less zip and hand
inked most of that stuff.

Did anyone buy this for me yet? I’ll promise to act surprised later.
