Un-used Swamp Thing 21 cover

Art by Thomas Yeates
Few days ago, collector Richard Donnelly posted the above image on his CAF gallery
It's an un-used cover art by Tom Yeates for the seminal Swamp Thing The Anatomy Lesson issue, cover date February 1984. 
Donnelly writes: "This un-inked pencil cover with two surgeons and a nurse about to vivisect Swamp Thing was likely rejected by Comic-Code or DC editorial. Signed with note and sketch by Thomas Yeates."
 
The official cover - now a classic! - was actually less direct and explicit.
