Making A Splash: Marvel Comics January, 1971

From January, 1971--the year Young Groove became an official Marvel Maniac--here are a baker's dozen scintillating splash pages! Check 'em out! Pay especially close attention to the credits on the Ka-Zar story--I'll be taking an in-depth look at Barry (Windsor) Smith's turn at the scourge of the Savage Land very soon! And dig that Herb Trimpe/Sam Grainger Hulk splash--one of my all-time faves! This was the good stuff, baby!

Making A Splash: DC Comics December, 1979

2008 has nearly come and gone. It's time to look back and reflect. That applies to the Diversions, too! Between now and New Year's Day, Ol' Groove is gonna be looking at various endings that occurred during the Groovy Age. Today, whadd'ya say we take a look at the final crop of 1970s DC comics?

Before I go, I have to wish Smilin' Stan Lee a happy day-late birthday! You might be 86, Stan, but you'll never be 86'd! You are still, and will always be, The Man! Here are a couple super-groovy Stan portraits from FOOM Magazine to help celebrate.
