I wondered for years who pencilled and who inked? Was is Wood apeing Severin's style or Vice Versa..... now I know from that Against the grain book also......Can't believe that Severin thought he screwed the inking up! The pairing up of thoes two was beautiful to me!ANoKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03843247048497129355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-11999697241334711402012-06-08T15:00:21.922-04:002012-06-08T15:00:21.922-04:00Actually Wood DID pencil the story and Severin ink...Actually Wood DID pencil the story and Severin inked it. In AGAINST THE GRAIN, John Severin said, "The only contact I ever had with him (Wood) business-wise was the one job we did together in which I managed to screw up his pencils. Totally."Bookstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797445163866512849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-63238575071257529602012-06-08T12:58:58.384-04:002012-06-08T12:58:58.384-04:00IF Wally Wood had pencilled the story instead of i...IF Wally Wood had pencilled the story instead of inking it, he would have been sure to include some nice shots of women, prostitutes, the office women, etc. Severin obviously thought differently. Except for the main character's mother, we barely see any women at all in the story.macsnafuhttp://www.macsnafu.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-59136745641195024122012-06-06T20:38:40.239-04:002012-06-06T20:38:40.239-04:00This is one story I'll remember forever. My e...This is one story I'll remember forever. My exposure to it was getting the "Resurrection" issue while in Grade School... And though I prefered the sci-fi/fantasy stories, this I could recognize even back then as brilliant. This was the true terror tale for it was man as monster, no need for supernature or fantastic events.<br /><br /><br />My fav story from creepy/resurrection issue though is "Yellow Heat" posted on another blog:<br />http://theporporbooksblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/yellow-heat-by-bruce-jones-story-and.html<br /><br /><br />I actually watched "African Cannibal" movies as a kid. Local theater in running down Midwest city got cheap movies and had matinees. What could possibly be wrong with showing kids classic movies from the 40s and 50s?Maxx Feralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881272313345949546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-90390464623081296522011-05-11T10:06:46.561-04:002011-05-11T10:06:46.561-04:00Nice artwork, but honestly, I can't recognize ...Nice artwork, but honestly, I can't recognize Wally Wood's touch. Can someone point to a panel or page that indicates his work?<br /><br /> Lester in panels 2 and 3 of the last page looks a lot like Kevin McCarthy from Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Also looks like Brian Bolland's artwork!HEHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02329418761741982984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-42221861039734751892011-05-11T07:04:30.855-04:002011-05-11T07:04:30.855-04:00I thought the same about Reese being involved with...I thought the same about Reese being involved with this for years but another site posted this last year and someone (Bhob Stewart?) asked Reese who said he had nothing to do with the story. Odd because I STILL see what looks like his touch.Bookstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797445163866512849noreply@blogger.com
