This is such a slick usage of the Weekly 2-Pager format.
The first page of the comic with the Topper/Title becomes what would be now considered 'Backmatter' or rather 'Frontmatter' in this case, while the actual sequentials follow in the next page.
Some smart formal play from the 1950s by Hampson!

There's no 'break' or 'separation' there, it just flows as part of the full story.
Much more graphically aware and stylized for sure. That's great. Will have to see more of their stuff!
