a) Page from The Eternals #7 showing Gammenon the Celestial returning with his rod of "Life Seed" capsules which Jemian the Celestial analyzes in their hemispherical dome. (January, 1977) by Jack Kirby





b) Photo of J G Ballard taken in 1969 or 1970 by Jannick Storm for : Issue #1 of Jannick Storm's J.G. Ballard newsletter, Limbo







c) The photograph of JG Ballard reversed next to the illustration







d) The nose area becomes the ball at the end of the rod with the seed of life capsules while his mouth and chin becomes the machine upon which its placed.






e) In this reversed photograph, the left side of his hairline becomes the left wing of the Celestial






f) His hair as seen on the right of this reversed photo becomes the the arm of the Celestial and the top of his head becomes the back






g) The pullover/jumper/sweater becomes the stair way






h) The ear on the right side of this reversed photograph becomes the Celestial's hand holding the rod.

It would be nice to have something that corresponded to Ballard's eye here there appears to be nothing.
