And In This Corner Part Deux

As Russ mentioned on the last post, Marvel's corner boxes mostly started out as headshots, and Jim Steranko inherited a corner box with a Kirby headshot of Nick Fury.  But this beauty full figure from Strange Tales 166 helped pump the premiere of Fury's own title.  Obviously, I really dug the black'n white corner box on Shield #4

 

And In This Corner

Onea the great innovations at Marvel was the corner box, and Gil Kane did an amazeballs job on Cap'n Marvel, I think.  I can't be sure, cause the tiny print'n is so poor.  If you know of a biggerbetterfasterstronger, please holla.  The second image is what I wish was the corner box

 

Nick Fury Hoists Old Glory by Jim Steranko

Only the first image is new on here, a colorization of the second image that had everything but.  Course, the guys at Iwo Jima will always be number one in hoist'n the red, white, 'n blue, but Fury was not too shabby

 

The Colors Of The Fanzine Anomaly 3

The first two issues of this fanzine were, while wunnerfully printed , black'n white, and usually when young fanzine publishers stepped up to color, it was the cover.  Jan Strand, however, went genius on us, and had a Bob Kline colored picture a few pages in, and then a Rich Corben colored picture a few pages before the end, and they were the same piece a paper

Heads Will Roll by Berni Wrightson

Toll bridge, Troll bridge, sump'n sump'n in Seattle, rolltrolltoll.  Just another example why I ain't a poet.  First image is new on here, but it's not much clearer than the wayback version (heavy sigh)
