Owner's Description

"Close Encounters of the Third Kind"
movie adaptation.

Marvel Comics Super Special issue 3 published in 1978 and was the 1st issue of the series to feature a direct movie adaptation - which was Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

This was written by Archie Goodwin with art by Walter Simonson and Klaus Janson. Cover was by Bob Larkin.

This adaptation deviates a fair amount from the film. I recall reading an account from Walter Simonson a long time ago that Marvel was not authorized to use the exact likenesses of certain actors and that they were not given enough references for this particular adaptation. I still enjoyed it regardless because I am such a huge fan of the original film.
