In "The Handsomest Man In the World!", Apollo, a celestial visitor from Venus, descends upon Earth and banishes night, declaring he’ll only restore it if the goddess Venus returns with him to her home planet. Ken Bald’s dynamic art brings this cosmic tale to life, with bold, expressive visuals on both the interior pages and the striking cover, all rendered by the artist himself.
