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

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

Winged Skeleton by Wally Wood

...and 18 years later, by Steve Ditko and Wally Wood



 

Axus by Barry Smith

Only the first one is new on here (and new to my consciousness).  If you know a biggerbetterfasterstronger version of it, I would sure dig it.  Hard to believe Axus has been around some thirty years.  In my mind, he's like the new kid on the block
