Wow, what an awesome array of angelic artists! Everyone from the usual suspects like Swan, Aparo, Dillin, Novick, and Oskner to Marvel-ous migrants like Kirby, Heck, and Tuska to new guys like Buckler, Thorne, and Cockrum! And do my wondering eyes detect Toth, Severin, and Elias decking DC's halls? Yeah, it's Definitely Christmas!
Wow! An epic post! And I loved that Luthor story -- The Man Who Murdered the World -- when it came out....
ReplyDeleteHappy Xmas!

and Jerry Grandenetti!
Just kinda carries the cares of the world away...
I still have that Luthor issue; got it when I was nine (evidently), one of my earliest superhero comics. A huge favorite from my childhood.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this great post!
