Notes: Lettering by Ditko.
The coloring, which appears to be from Ditko color guides, is almost
completely expressionistic. We have a variety of blues, some yellow
variations, and even a red; but no "flesh-color" symbolizing pink dots on
the faces or hands after the first two panels on page 2.
This story is an homage to Winsor McCay's fantastic comic strip, Little Nemo in Slumberland. McCay's influence on Ditko can also be seen in his philosophical work such as Avenging World.
At the bottom of the splash page Stan Lee continues the conversation begun in Tales to Astonish 21 V-193 It Happened on the Silent Screen:
“EDITOR’S NOTE: REMEMBER OUR SENSATIONAL TALE “THE SILENT SCREEN” A FEW ISSUES AGO? WE STILL GET LETTERS ASKING FOR ANOTHER SUCH UNUSUAL TALE...
AND NOW, IN RESPONSE TO ALL YOUR REQUESTS— HERE IT IS, BY THE SAME TALENTED ARTIST-WRITER TEAM WHO BROUGHT YOU THE NOW-CLASSIC “SILENT SCREEN”!
Stan gives himself credit for scripting the 5-months-past “Silent Screen” and gives artist, Ditko top billing in:”the...talented artist-writer team...”
At the bottom of page 5:
LIKE THIS TYPE OF STORY? THEN DON’T MISS “AMAZING ADULT FANTASY” COMICS— ON SALE NOW!
The first issue of “AMAZING ADULT FANTASY” hit the stands about 3 weeks later.
