Collector's Corner: the most amazing collectible which never was

I spotted this item via a mention on Twitter, originally - from pop culture blog PPGuru - and the entry is a few years old now, but I am incredibly fascinated by this particular byway of Yes-related ephemera, and I recommend the read if you also like to be in the know regarding any and all trivia.  Some may be familiar with the notion of rock n'roll-related comicbooks, and Yes had been considered as a subject for such publications, more than once.

For me perhaps the most interesting revelation is this:

The one featuring Yes was solicited in Diamond Comics Catalogue in March of 1994 for a June 1994 newsstand/comic book specialty store release to coincide with the release and tour of the album Talk, so the comic book wouldn’t have sported a Roger Dean logo, but rather the updated Peter Max painted logo that served as the album cover.

The blog also features other Yes-related content, so it's worth perusing as a whole, IMO.
