Yeah, most of these are actually title pages instead of splashes, but who cares? Aren't they the ginchiest?

  1. Hey big bopper! Eman was a go to for me when I got tired of The Big Two! Staton is doing Dick Tracy now in the Sunday funny papers if interested!

  2. You can't go wrong starting a Friday with Charlton E-Man art. This is my favorite Joe Station art of his career. It was so uninhibited, inventive, just flowing across the page freestyle; enhanced greatly by his helium balloon lettering. Under his masterful hand Nova was one hot chick, sizzling up the 70s.
