Sorry about this 2 week break, I'll catch by posting at a quicker rate for some weeks.
Ernie shows in his seventh issue of Arak that he's still trying new things. One exemple is this "ghost" arm showing the mouvement of the guy trying to smah Arak's head. I could be more wrong but I think this is the only time ever that Ernie wil use this "gimmick". Perhaps he wasn't happy with the effect (to be frank, it doesn't really work here). I don't think we'l ever see him using it after that.
This bath scene reminds me of course of the famouse Barry Smith censored similar scene in Conan The Barbarian. It seems that DC and/or Dick Giordano were a little looser on this than what was usually tolerated for a standart mainstream code comics.
DC published ARAK SON OF THUNDER 7
Gerry CONWAY, Mike BARR & Roy THOMAS wrote "A dark, unlighted place..."(26p)
Rodin RODRIGUEZ inked it

Adrienne ROY colored it
Ben ODA lettered it
