In later issues I thought Dan Adkins did a great job. But some of my favorite Smith inks ( besides his own) came from Bill Everett on a Ka-Zar story in Astonishing Tales.<br />He was a versatile and intelligent collaborator on whoever he inked. Kirby, Steranko, Colan...they all benefited from his sympathetic finishes.
