A Groovy Guest-Post by Mike Mikulovsky! Black and White Wednesday: More Man-God/Tony DeZuniga Original Art

 Mighty Mike Mikulovsky is back with more original Man-God art! Check out his previous post here, Groove-ophiles!

Hey Groovy Ones! Here's a groovy update to a few more Man-God (Marvel Preview #9, Winter 1976) pieces I've been lucky enough to pick up: three more great pages, all signed by the late great Tony DeZuniga and (still with us, thank goodness) Rascally Roy Thomas!! I also have the two prelims to the powerfully beautiful painted cover by the awesome Earl Norem! So now I have 21 pages, the Dan Adkins promo piece, plus these great prelims! Only 31 more pages to go on my quest! Hopefully, one day I'll be fortunate enough to own the holy grail itself--the actual painting itself! If any of you see or own any of these pages, I'd really enjoy hearing from you. Feel free to pass on my name and e-mail address to anyone who has any of these pages. I hope you enjoy seeing these beautifully drawn wash pages. I still hope to have Roy finish this story for me, then be able to find a artist I can afford who's interested in finishing part II of Man-God for me. Of  course he'd have to have a style similar to Tony's. I hope 2013 has been as great year for you as it has been for me these first 5 months so far. I can be directly contacted at mklvsky@yahoo.com

This post is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Tony DeZuniga (November 8, 1932 – May 11, 2012).

  1. I forgot to mention. After looking at that full pencilled prelim. The woman always looked very familar to me. Sure enough just by pure luck. I was watching the Twilight Zone.

    I noticed the woman in the episode. "To serve man" The actress Susan Cummings who shouts " It's a cook book!" Looks to be the actress I never could put my finger on. Who to me looks to be the actress Earl Norem possibly used. Google her name & let me know what you think.
