Coupla beauts for calendar covers, but the thing is, 2003's does not exist. Time may be a wave or stream, but sometimes the eddies seem to play havoc. That reminds me: as you may have noticed, I occasionally pepper these babblings with dad jokes. Well, I told you a joke about time travel, but you will not be amused

Nick Fury, Desk Jockey, by Jack Kirby
Okay, office work is probly as important to SHIELD as a lotta other places, but I can see why stuff like this might get left out of an action-packed comic

Thor by Barry Smith
Only the first one is new on here, but I just realized I haven't gotten this Thor since I first lifted weights in the early 80s
Unused Title Page and Frontis For The Scarlet Citadel by Roy Krenkel
First one has been on here before, but both these are biggerbetterfasterstronger. Wish Roy coulda gotten the chance to finish this book before he passed-I think it woulda eclipsed Sowers Of Thunder (sigh). Krenkel's Conan was dynamically different from his buddy Fritz's version, and I always dug how much a Krenkel Conan looked like Robert E. Howard before there were barbershops

Union by Barry Smith and Jim Lee
First is 3 versions of Barry's great cover that somehow got missed on here (maybr just me, but the bad guy's fist looks like a roar'n lion), then the iconic Union by his creator. Speak'n of which, the creator of the Heat Index recently passed away. He was 84, but it felt like he was 92

Coupla Slimy Vikings by Gil Kane
Okay, don't be hate'n, but I made it a point to avoid Man-Thing when it was a thang, so I just saw these Vikings, but better late than never
