Close To The Edge With Gil Kane

Great stuff about this in the wayback, but I'd never seen the unpublished cover until now
 

British Savage Sword Of Conan

I know this UK comic on Conan was a flop in 1975 (black'n white guts and poor print'n may have added to the ho-humness), but some of the colors on these Barry Smith covers are awesome
 

Galactus by Jack Kirby

Guess that should read Galactii
 

Weird Science #9 Cover by Wally Wood

The original art, the EC cover, and then a nifty little print colored by Marie Severin
 

Strength Of Man Portfolio Plate by Moebius

 The rest of the portfolio was ah-ite, but this really shines.  Also, I think this was the only plate that emphasized the mind as a strength

Ancient Hawkman by Jeff Jones

 As an ancient myself, I recall this was just a novelty baseball cap sold at the bazaars along the caravan trade routes

Super Heroe by Barry Smith

 Cannae remember whose album cover this was, but I would love to find out, so I could look in the right spot at our used records stores

Abyss #1 Cover by Berni Wrightson

 

Daredevil Pin-Up by Wally Wood

 In the back of DD #5 (Wood's first issue) was this great pin-up, and then 2 issues later, Wally gave us the iconic costume that looks so bomb from then on

Creeps #29 Cover by Frank Frazetta

 Ton of stuff up here if you search "mammoth," including the paperback cover, pencil sketch, and original painting, but this fresh look as a big magazine cover is che cool

Orion VS Darkseid by Jack Kirby

Up a coupla times in the wayback, but I've not seen the pencils quite this vivid
 

Wolverine by Barry Smith

 

Blue Lagoon by Berni Wrightson

If you're a fan of Brooke Shields and old horror movies, you'll appreciate this post title.  Irregardless, the art is amazeballs
 

Wally Wood Writes Daredevil

 Wish I wrote more, but I cannae spell, and I hate look'n back at a written page and see'n everything underlined in red

Fistful Of Bob Kline

 

Jack Kirby Returns To Marvel

 Another appearance of the Twinkie-fist!  Jack usually reserved the Twinkie-fist for Cap'n America, methinks, and this was a great way to start his new chapter( along with Black Panther and the Eternals).  dug it

ACBA Sketchbook

 Okay, I just went down that rabbit-hole.  The Academy of Comic Book Arts was a fellowship of pro comic artists from 1970-1977, gave out Shazam awards (note the lightning bolt in Kaluta's last sig), and did an annual sketchbook to raise funds (#buy dinner).  Problem on the annual sketchbooks, I cannae find anything except for 1973 and 1975, and 1973 dinnae even have a cover.  By 1975, I was a sophomore by day and a disco fiend by night, so I missed it
