Dell's Movie Classic adaptation of the sweeping 1961 biblical epic King of Kings arrives in striking fashion, with cover art by Reynold Brown showcasing the film's grand scale — massive crowds stretching to the horizon, a towering cross, and a lone robed figure standing before a multitude, all framed by the film's own tagline promising "the power, the passion, the greatness, the glory." A photo inset captures several of the film's characters in an intimate scene, blending the cinematic source material directly into the package. Interior art by Gerald McCann brings this grand story to the comics page in a handsome fifteen-cent package that captures the epic ambition of one of 1961's most talked-about films.
