Newton's artwork in Avengers Annual 9 made such an impact on me.<br />If I recall correctly, he also did about 1.5 issues of the regular series too. The Avengers battling Yellow Claw.<br />Thanks for sharing these images.HEHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-50135360860643970922010-06-05T09:09:23.972-04:002010-06-05T09:09:23.972-04:00Hey Groovester
Man, I miss Don Newt...Hey Groovester<br /> Man, I miss Don Newton, I know after coming home from the service. I started asking my best buddy Jef, who happened to own his a chain a comic store in Milwaukee,WI until his passing also sadly. Like Don Newton he too also left us way too young. What happened to Mr.Newton, I figured he was at a different company. <br /><br />I was shocked to hear he had passed away. I loved his beautiful artwork. Especially on Capt.Marvel/Shazam & the Marvel Family. His Man-Bat,Aquaman, & the rest were great also. There's a excellent website out there on Don as well. I highly recommend checking it out. Thanks for sharing with us this forgotten treasure. SHAZAM!
