This story is unique because it is presented from scans of the hand-drawn art...
...from Jack (King) Kirby's proposed 1970s b/w magazine Soul Love!
We would have presented pages from the printed comic/magazine the way we usually do...except it wasn't published...until very recently!
(We'll explain below!)
NSFW / NSFS note...it is somewhat "politically incorrect"...but not for the reason you might think!
(Hey, look! A "Kirby Quote"!)
You'll note pages 5 and 6 aren't as "clean" as the other pages, which are scanned from the actual original art!
They're scanned from photocopies, which are the only versions I could acquire, but they're legible enough to "fill out" the tale!
(Oh, man! More "Kirby Quotes"!)

Written/penciled/edited by Jack Kirby and inked by Vince Colletta, the story takes the typical attitude of the period about overweight women, though Aleda's not actually obese.
(In fact, I was involved with a woman who had a similar body type, which I found extremely-appealing!)
