MAY1979 Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) This topic inspired by posts in "Your single favorite Bronze Age Cover: You must only pick one" Keith Pollard generally is underrated at least in my opinion for his cover work from 1978-1980. During that time to my eyes he hit an artistic stride taking his art to the next level creating many outstanding covers. Inviting all to show pollard covers while 1978-1980 is preferred, feel free to post any Bronze or early copper cover of his. A Mid 1990's raw purchase from Comic Heaven. I submitted it during the early CGC days Edited November 23, 2021 by MAR1979 Spider-Variant, Point Five and comic_memories 3
MAY1979 Posted November 23, 2021 Author Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) I believe Cap's holding Peggy Carter. Only 9.8 in original pre-mid 2003 slab. Edited November 25, 2021 by MAR1979 David-Lance Roten 1
THE_BEYONDER Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 Just think how great his covers would be if Milgrom wasn’t inking them.
Spider-Variant Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 Great books. Ross Andru was my Spider-Man artist, but glad your a Pollard fan.

Ross Andru was my Spider-Man artist, but glad your a Pollard fan. Actually the ASM artists of "my era" were Romita Jr/Frenz/McFarlane. I do like Andru thou specifically his work from 1974-1981 at both Marvel and DC. Edited November 23, 2021 by MAR1979 Spider-Variant 1
MAY1979 Posted November 23, 2021 Author Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Kirby Crackle (bubbles) on one of my favorite Thor Covers. His work with Marco's on the interiors from 1978-1980 was top notch. Some of the imagery in 281 and 282 is wild Edited November 23, 2021 by MAR1979 Spider-Variant 1

LowGradeBronze Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) I'm glad you have also invited covers other than 78 to 80. This from September 1976 with a fab cover, (and Keith Giffen / Al Milgrom inside art.) Edited November 24, 2021 by LowGradeBronze MAY1979 1
