selegue Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 .... Here are some other Marvel Man covers..... Doctor Hormone -- HAW!!! Just what those teen-age comic book readers needed. I wonder if any astute Legion of Super-Hero fans suggested him as a new member. Artist's signature on the second cover? What does it say?

selegue Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Artist's signature on the second cover? What does it say? Thanks, Jack It says E.C. Stoner (Mr Phantasmo himself). Hah! In that case, we should be grateful for Marvel Man's miniskirt (and should not speculate about boxers or briefs). E. C. Stoner -- what a name for a comic-book artist! I think someone mentioned recently that he was African-American. Creator of Mister Peanut! Bibliography at Bails' Who's Who I wondered whether he was also responsible for Doctor Hormone -- apparently not -- and found some pages on-line. Utterly bizarre! Here are two splash pages, one by Ralph Carlson and the other by Bob Bugg. Master of Human Chemistry -- more Golden Age for my want list!

buttock Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 That is soooooooo cool, Jack, Jon, & BZ. That kind of stuff just epitomizes early GA to me. There was so much experimentation going on by artists, writers, publishers. The "boundaries" of the medium hadn't been set and anything went. It must have been a blast to be a kid then.
