WTB -- Creig Flessel Original Art

[esquirecomics]

This guy is one of the best Platinum artists around as far as I am concerned. I already a color cover proof to More Fun #30, but I want more!!!

 

If anyone has or knows of any work by Flessel that is or might be available, PLEASE PM me.

 

Thanks!

I agree. But I can't really afford the comics, much less the art.

I know it's probably not what your looking for, but surprisingly Creig is still cranking out commissions. Do a search on the Comicart-l group and you'll see several examples he's created in recent months. They're really nice, especially considering his age.

 

Here's a gallery with some nice examples:

That Creig Flessel drawing nude in the nude is quite funny. And terribly wrong.

Hey guys,

Anybody know Mr. Flessel's contact info for commissions? Thanks! - Keith

If I had the duckies, I would commission him to do a redraw of the Double Action Comics #2/Adventure Comics #37 cover. I really like that cover. Definitely, the epitomizes the whole Adventure comics genre.

Amazing that he is still active in his nineties.

 

He did an interview in CBA last year. I started a thread in the GA forum, but I still haven't read it.

Yes I would like to know also

I didn't think anyone definitively knew who drew that cover. I have heard it may have been O'Mealia, Flessel, or someone else.

According to GCD, it's Flessel. Though could have been O'Mealia. Guess the only way to find out is ask Flessel.

I know they both worked on the interiors to that book. Honestly, the cover looks more like O'Mealia to me. Actually, it doesn't really fit either of their styles exactly.

[Timulty]

I was going through the covers of 32-40. Of those, 34 and 35 are credited to Fred Guardineer. Now, O'Mealia is nowhere to be seen. Now, this means 1 of 2 things. GCD is wrong and all those but 34 and 35 are O'Mealia. Or It is Flessel. O'Mealia's first cover is 41. I think, we need a serious Adventure Comics guru to tell us who did what.

I would like to hear it. O'Mealia didn't do a whole lot of comic work, so it wouldn't surprise me to find out that he wasn't the artist. The stuff he did do was gorgeous though. Action 2 is in my top 10 golden age covers. That book's front art is truly under-appreciated.
