BangZoom Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 ....and here is a recreation that Glanzman did of his cover for Amazing Man 15. Had to find him and convince him. He only did comics for a short period before he went on to bigger and better things. That's a great piece, Jon. Glanzman has had quite a career. He was only 16 or 17 when he was working for Centaur. Here is a profile about him that appeared in The New York Times back in 2001. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 One of my favorite strips in Amazing-Man Comics is MiniMidget. I think it has some of the funniest dialogue. "I projected MiniMidget into the year 3000 - Quiet! Quiet, fellows. I know I shouldn't have, but I let the scientist get the best of myself. Now I would like you gentleman to help me make a machine to get them back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 BZ, weren't you looking for Newsstands in comics? This is the Inside Cover to a Laugh Comics - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I was catching up on my reading of Alter Ego. I was reading issue 82's interview with Joe Edwards who points out that Jughead was modeled after Stan Laurel. Maybe it's common knowledge and I am coming out of the Dark Ages on this one but I don't recall having ever been pointed to the fact. I reused some pics from a composite of the early Jughead I did for the Month thread and ran a couple of comparisons with Laurel - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm missing out on all sorts of good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
