You really see this by issue 11. The cover with the alien queen is intense with detail.

While Brian Bolland did a lot of nice covers and back-up or single-issue stories, I guess this CAMELOT 3000 series was Bolland's first major breakout series work.

But I can think of a number of other covers Bolland has done that took my breath away.


Here's a cover Bolland did for ZATANNA'S SEARCH, a 2004 collection reprinting the earliest Zatanna stories, from circa 1964-1967 :
