Father's Day by Jack Kirby

If your step-dad was someone else's birth-dad, and your birth-dad was someone else's step-dad, you just might be a red-neck (er, I mean you just might be a new god).  As I said in the wayback (11 years ago), I would love to see this with Mike Royer inks

 

Miami Con by Neal Adams

Coupla subjects that Neal did ohsogreat, Green Lantern and Conan.  This is 1975, when his Conan print came out that was simply Georgeous.  You know,the one where a weary Conan in the rain is beckoning us to c'mere, taste my fury

 

RBCC #61 Cover by John Fantucchio

I'll be look'n at the moon, but I'll be RBCC'n you.  Always thought this cover was amazeballs, and years later, when I saw it black'n white in the incredible fanzine Sword And Fantasy, I fell in love all over again

 

Coupla Warlocks by Gil Kane

Onea these has never been up on here, and the other is posted here pretty much non-stop.  I asked Bert how it felt to have Gil Kane apologize so beautifully, but apparently he's not the same Bert

 

Lighten Up, Black Bolt! by Jack Kirby

Could just be me, mister Marvel Monthly Magazine editor, but I think the scosche darker pencils on the original art looks even better than the published cover

 

Posters by Bob Kline

Here's another fanzine obscura I wished I'd had sense enough to order.  The ad is a full page from RBCC, and the rest was , as Bargatze says, "just so many words!"  The first image is the great two-page spread of the same images from Bob's beautiful portfolio where, co-inky-dinkily, the two were printed together.  The Bloodstar (worm) image first appeared in the great fanzine Anomaly #1, and the Conan (boat) image was in Anomaly #2.  May have touched on this in the past, but I couldn't find anything, and they were che cool

 

Green Eyes by Jim Steranko

Put this Shadow cover up nine years ago, but the pencils weren't near as che as this

 

Butterfly (?) Lady by Wally Wood

In the wayback, I said this Galaxy cover was my fav butterfly lady in the realm of comic/fantasy art, but now that we see the rough, I'm not so sure it IS a butterfly lady

 

The Wish'n World Splash by John Pound

John just finally made the blog last year (but that horror cover last year had, er, "haunted" me for decades), and now he's back, with a Wally Wood homage from the fanzines that rivals Rand Holmes and Wayne Howard.  suh-weet

 

In The Lower Depths by George Metzger

Long before The Buyer's Guide, there was already a newspaper fanzine for comic fans, The Voice Of Comicdom.  Sheeeesh, talk about your Lost Worlds (which I still covet), here's a Metzger I just learned about

 

Time Zoo by Wally Wood

Where the 1950s meets the prehistoric

 

Fight'n American From The Black Book Valentine by Jack Kirby

This embiggens nicely, but the only time it's been up on here, it was blurry, cut-off, and smaller.  As you may know, the Cap'n agrees with the tonite show, always go biggerbetterfasterstronger.  Also, if you search Fight'n American on here, there's lots of great stuff, but not this.  Check out his David Bowie eyes

 

Coupla Nick Fury Sketches by Jim Steranko

More than half a century later, I can't get enough

 

Fanzine Fly'n by Jim Pinkoski

Roh-roh, Shaggy, I did a Cap'n Gaff again.  Found this montrhs ago, and (as you may know) I can't remember last week.  Found it in a fanzine while search'n for someone else.  If you know it's home, please holla
