Grooviest Covers of All Time: Farewell, Nick Cardy
Greetings, Groove-ophiles. As you've no doubt already heard, the brilliant Nick Cardy passed away this past Sunday. 'Tis quite a blow to those of us here in Groove City, since Nick was THE DC cover artist for much of he Groovy Age. Nick knew everything there is to know about putting together a comicbook cover that could grab your attention, hold it, and tell you a whole story--usually with only one image. You've seen Cardy covers all week long, I'm sure, and you've seen plenty of them here on the Diversions (and will continue to do so for a long, long time), but I hope you'll indulge me in share some of my faves. Some I've posted before, some are everyone's favorites, but they're here, today, 'cause they're my absolute favorite Nick Cardy covers. Thank you, Nick for...
...and for so many hours of enjoyment!
