Random Reads: "John Targitt...Man-Stalker!" by Conway, Meyers, and Nostrand
Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Here's the final issue of John Targitt...Man-Stalker (ish #3, April 1975) in which the character goes into full super-hero mode, fighting a super-villain called Professor Death rather than The Mob. Writer Gerry Conway joins co-creators Ric Meyers and Howard Nostrand to make the transformation--and the series--complete. And say what you will about the story, but man-oh-man don't ya just love that Nostrand art?
It's a shame Atlas didn't make it. I loved many oif their titles. My favorites were the Grim Ghost, Tigerman & Man-Monster. I was so bumbed out as a young teen when they went under so fast. Great memories groovster!
