 Voltar by Alfredo Alcala
In 1963, the Filipino artist Alfredo Alcala (1925 - 2000) began publishing 'Voltar', a sword-and-sorcery tale, as a komik (as comic books are referred to in the Philippines). 

Warren publishing acquired the rights to reprint Voltar, in English, as an eight-part series in The Rook magazine. The first of the 8 installments appeared in The Rook issue 2 (cover date February 1979).


Alcala's art for Voltar is amazing, but I've hesitated scanning and posting the first installment because my copies of The Rook are 42 years old, and the bindings are fragile. 

Luckily, the complete content of the first installment of 'Voltar' has been scanned and is available at the 'Straight Outta Surrey' website. It's well worth checking out.
