Star Trek #20

George Wilson's painted cover sets the tone beautifully — a long-haired figure in ornate military dress grips a whip while Scotty and Dr. McCoy grapple desperately in freefall against a swirling planetary backdrop, with photo portraits of Spock and Kirk watching from the upper corner. The cover tagline says it all: "In a world gone mad, Scotty and Dr. McCoy fight for their lives — against each other!" This 1973 Gold Key entry, with interior art by Alberto Giolitti and writing by Arnold Drake, promises the kind of high-concept Star Trek adventure that made the series a treat beyond the television screen.
