[selegue]

The covers?

 

Showcase Sea Devils is Russ Heath

Green Lantern is Gil Kane

Flash is Carmine Infantino

Mystery in Space is Infantino

B&B JLA is (I think?) Mike Sekowsky inked I believe by Murphy Anderson

 

Agreeing and adding inkers

 

Showcase Sea Devils is Russ Heath/ Adler (wash prints and color separations)

Green Lantern is Gil Kane/ Adler (wash prints and color separations)

Flash is Carmine Infantino/ Anderson

Mystery in Space is Infantino/ Anderson

B&B JLA is Mike Sekowsky/ Anderson

 

Funny -- if I remember right, Infantino was wiped out early in the voting for favorite Silver Age artist a while back. There's a strong pattern of favorite inker here.

Murphy Anderson

 

I'll second that (thumbs u

[RockMyAmadeus]

It's true, though...of the remaining 5, Showcase #29 is the purtiest.

[Subliminal]

From voting so far it looks like fans don't like guys riding sea-horses, nasty reptiles that don't accessorize well and a starfish

I think the MIS 90 is Murphy Anderson....I think ?

 

What? It's perfect Infantino, with Anderson inks.

[Speedy-D]

I can't wait for the final round to be between MiS 90 and Flash 123. Man, that'll be perfect.

When was the vote for favorite SA artist?

 

Here is the final round

 

You can track backward from there. I remember being surprised how many people disliked Infantino. He was voted out surprisingly early.

 

Possibly the voting was so Marvel-oriented that his later lackluster Marvel work doomed him.

[Speedy-D]

Yeah, you kinda have to ignore his late 70s stuff. I feel like not many people understood how to ink him later in his career.

 

But in my book, he's the king of the Silver Age, even beats out Kirby.

[Speedy-D]

Hmm, 2007 huh? Maybe it's time for another round or two on that subject.

[shiverbones]

really shocked the BB28 & GL got booted off, those would have been my final two. Oh well, wish I saw all this earlier!
