"Copy That, Good Buddy" by Dan Adkins
We recently mentioned Dan's wondrous ability to create some great art by copy'n some great art, but I thought it was really cool that the guy who encouraged him most, Wally Wood, was the guy he copied best. The Maze! was Adkins own creation, soooo....about a decade later, The Cap'n copied Dan Adkins

Insolent Human! by Wally Wood
Great Sub-Mariner by Wood, and I just saw it! It was in Marvelmania Magazine #5, part of the ad for the Super Hero Portfolio (?), then again in a house ad. Looks like the panel from page fifteen of DD #7, but much better, in my opine

Out 'N About With Rich Corben, Wally Wood, and Rand Holmes
Saw these three when I was on a "time-killer walk-about" today (saw a lotta stuff, but these three stood out to me.).If you wanna play Price Is Right, they run $3, $22, and then $10

Coupla Cadillaxe by Berni Wrightson
Shades a Stormbringer! Have no idea what Berni was up to (if you do, please clue a cap'n in), but it looks amaze. balls. I'm think'n cadillaxe is like moose, can be singular or plural

Flash Gordon and Dale by Al Williamson
Lots of Alflash on here already (cool that Williamson had such a passion for Flash), but I find this one che nice
Slow Death #4 Cover by Rich Corben
Havenae put this up in quite a while (methinks), but it still warms the cockels. Gore was the wizard of the air-brush, and I'll always call this the pinnacle. Although the nineteen-seventy-sump'n date on the world peace treaty placard was part of the spookiness of the image when it came out, it's kinda lost its edge over time, but the art will never lose its edge

Another Great Fanzine Cover by Gene Day
You can tell I'm drag'n today. The other four (a similar theme by Gene, then Bob Kline, Jack Kirby, and Frank Frazetta have a go at it) have been up on here before

Pointy-Eared Conan by Berni Wrightson
First image is from the 1974 fanzine Dreams I, and the next four are from the 1970 fanzine Infinity 1, where we get some folks say'n Berni once drew Conan as an alien. What the verbage actually says, though, is they were presenting a sword and sorcery portfolio in tribute to Conan and REH. Last three are a nice co-inky-dink, with Conan battl'n pointy-eared guys
