SA ARTIST SURVIVOR SERIES: RD.1

[shiverbones]

That's all pre-code! no fair!

[TheWatcher]

I like Maneeley, especially his pre-code horror work, but not really as a silver age artist.

 

Died 1958 -- not much Silver-Age work. OK, I'm beginning to understand.

 

Jack

 

 

He was a guilty pleasure. Forgot to add him in the GA poll, so I put him here. That being said, his Black Knight work may have been the best of his career.

[shiverbones]

never owned a black knight...

never owned a black knight...

 

Me neither, but a lot of those stories were reprinted in some of the Marvel reprint books of the late '60s (maybe Fantasy Masterpieces...?) which is where I learned to love the Black Knight.

So many artists to chop out in the initial rounds!

 

Some on the basis that in my opinion they really aren't SA artists even if they did SOME work during that period and therefore shouldn't have been on this list in the first place. This group would include Frazetta, Maneely and Crandall.

 

Others on the basis that in my opinion they just weren't very good and should never have been on this list in the first place. This group would include Don Heck, George Tuska and Ayers.

 

I'm going to vote against lack of talent before I start voting based on technicalities, so my two votes off this round are Heck and Tuska.

I have been wanting to pick up those thick Marvel 60's reprints lately, that is even more reason!

[Mac Man]

Any possibility we could list a couple of the titles that these artists worked on? Some of the less notable ones might not be as recognizable unless title-referenced. Just an idea.

 

Maybe check out the GCD first. I'm going there now before voting.

 

Eh, I'm feeling too lazy. I'm just going to vote off the ones I don't know until I can vote for those I like most... (doesn't look good for non-Marvels).

[Doctor Svord]

Adams and Frazetta

I didn't notice Mike Sekowsky on the list! He would definitely fall into the too-talentless-to-have-been-up-for-consideration group. If I'd noticed his name, I probably would have voted him off over Tuska.

[143ksk]

And, I can't believe anyone would vote against the man who drew this :cloud9:

[shiverbones]

I DO have to stop spelling Maneely wrong though...

That's where I first read the stories. I, too, have never owned any issues of Black Knight

[CAP Freak]

Ogden and Whitney for me. I liked Tuska Cap. He goes next round,

[djpinkpanther67]

No Herb Trimpe to vote off??? :shrug:

[CAP Freak]

He is most known for his BA work although he did do some nice Hulk in the late SA

Sekowsky is on the list and I did notice ... that's why I voted for him

 

Here's Don Heck when he's good btw - He did plenty of other good work for Media -
