Fistful Of Roy Krenkel





Yes, the acronym for this post title is FORK, as in "More Krenkel art I haven't seen?  Well, FORK it over!" (okay, Cap'n definitely has too much time on his hands)

 

First Look At The Creeper by Steve Ditko

As I've said afore, underneath this amazeballs cover was the greatest origin

G.A.S. Lite Just Might







For the longest time, I've fantasized about a fun fanzine that I dunno about suddenly appear'n like a fireworks display (ooooh aaaaah).  It would be from the early 70s, and somehow contain many of the usual suspects (fav artists).  G.A.S. lite just might be that "fantasy fanzine"

Steve Ditko and/or Wally Wood Throw A Monkey Wrench Into The Works

Only new image is the last, where ACG gave Jim a wicked sunburn, but I'm amazed I myself (or anyone else, as far as I can tell) has/have never commented on the giant spanner wrench which appears in Jim's fist for one panel, but nowhere else

Chained by Frank Frazetta


Over 11 years ago, I put up the Usurper, but said none of the roughs I'd seen were my cupa.  That just changed, when I saw this rough on the back of The Frazetta Sketchbook.  But the cover still rules

Southpaw Super Villain by Jim Steranko

First is the best I have seen this one side of a slipcase cover for the upcom'n Marvel Creator Collection #2.  Both sides are awesome collages from Steranko's work, but everyone showing them have these wonky angles that drive me nuts (I know, I know--that's a short trip!).  Second image is the toptenteentunes cover that shows the baddie with his correct (right) dominance.  Dunno why, but I've always been amazed at how flip'n a comic image changes people's grips
