Jack Davis, the artist who drew this story, did not use the ellipsis... the ellipsis was used by Harvey Kurtzmann, who *wrote* the story. Contrary to popular belief, the artist of a comic strip or comic book story is often not the writer. And given that Jack Davis, brilliant as he is, worked off Harvey's layouts as well as his script, an argument could be made that he wasn't the sole artist of this story as well. Credit where credit is due.
