Playboy #8

"Unexpected Result" is a striking 1971 story from Playboy, written, drawn, and inked by Marty Murphy, capturing a tense, intimate moment in a convertible with the top down. As a man tries to persuade his date into a private act, claiming they're alone in the desert, the quiet tension is disrupted by the sudden approach of a passing Greyhound bus—unseen by him but unmistakably present. The cover by Marty Murphy perfectly mirrors the story’s sharp, unexpected turn.
