Does anyone know who this Superman artist is?

5 posts in this topic

I have a 48 page story called "Luthor's Lost Land" dated 1975.

It is fully original art and not stats. Even the title paste-ups on the splash page are hand drawn and inked.

Neal Adams drew the cover but...

Does anyone out there know who this artist is?

The problem with coloring books and other similar comics-publishing related stuff is that it could have always been done by a freelance illustrator that has no relation to the comics industry. So, you could easily say "hey, that's a Curt Swan Lex Luthor head"...but it could always be someone drawing to ape Swan's style in order to keep things on-model...

Most of the marvel coloring books were done by Owen McCarron. He did the Captain America one of this same series as Superman. I have the Shazam one, and it looks like it could've been done by Ernie Colon, but who knows?

 

Heck, I have a Super Friends one that was done by Mike Royer. You'd NEVER guess it by looking at the art...

 

There are plenty of illustrators that make a living doing licensing art, and you'd never know who they were by looking at their art.
