2025: For the first time ever, PS Artbooks presents Science Fiction Odyssey #1 from Skywald. Skywald's famous, never actually printed, magazine would have been the first adult SF comic since EC's Incredible Science Fiction, but the publishers, Sol Brodsky ('Sky') and Israel Waldman ('Wald') belief that SF just didn't sell and budgetary constraints, alas meant the magazine was withdrawn, although only after film had been made and just before delivery to the printers! The editor Al Hewetson managed to re-use all of the first issue's stories in the company's range of horror magazines, which is how we managed to piece together our original Science Fiction Odyssey. We've made some alterations and assumptions, but hopefully we've got the finished result fairly close to how it would have appeared over fifty years ago!
