Observing and unpacking the first two pages of Eternal, featuring the bullied Terwit on the clock tower ledge. Alex Toth flips the script on page one, playing with time, focus and sequence, and is all about POV on page 2. I include thoughts on the balance of the silly story (The Witching Hour # 1 • DC Comics • February, 1969).

On Artists' Criticism and Self-Criticism: Toth could be a tough critic, but tougher even more so on himself. It can be difficult for artists to hear criticism, but it's one way we can grow if we can take it, and apply it. Being too rough on yourself can stop creative flow and productivity, not hard enough and we don't improve. Achieving that balance, Toth's critique of Rude's Johnny Quest comics pencils, and more is covered here.
