adamstrange Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 as a fan I am happy that he "made them his" although as a penciller I might have been pizzed Great thread, I would love to hear more about Fox. He is one of my favorites from that time period Larry Lieber was very unhappy that Matt was assigned to ink some of his pre-hero Marvel work. I think it makes the art much more interesting, even if it is much less Lieberish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Zowie! I was looking at the features in that comic over at GCD and I'm intrigued with a bunch of the stories in that issue: Memel Denny, Hemisphere Patrol, Super Comic Kid, Storm on the Moon, Wonderland of Oz. They all sound pretty interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 just came across this character from kabuki play- Tokubei is a wizard who rides on a giant toad while shouting mysterious ominously otherworldly incantations like 'Santa Maria' !!! Wake Up Old Ones !!!!!! Great drawing. Do you have any more illustrations from that play? I was a dues paying member of the Herpetological Society when I was a kid and I'm a still a big fan. Which do you like best? Snakes, lizards or amphibians? One of my favorite movies was the "Freshman" which featured a Komodo dragon. Not sure if I would have wanted to carry one as they did in the movie and risk being bitten (like Sharon Stone's husband). Perhaps it was just a giant monitor lizard in the movie which may be safer. I think I prefer stories about Dragons, like those written by Anne McCaffrey but I did enjoy the Mister Toad cartoon by Disney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 BB, that's because they are popular, even on eBay, bidding is typically strong on RR. Thanks for the post, BZ. Was that the infamous Robert Blake as little Beaver? Another BB gone bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickamabob Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 We were discussing Rudolph Belarski painted paperback covers a while ago in this thread. I had these out the other day and snapped a photo. I think all or most of these are Belarski: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
