Another Super Vehicle by Jack Kirby

 

Somea the animation stuff was truly amaz'n.  please embiggen

Triceratops by Roy Krenkel

Once ina while, I see an illo and just go, "that's awesome"

 

1981 Blackmark VS 1977 Blackmark by Gil Kane

Funny how neither The Comics Journal nor the fanzine portfolio mentioned the character's name

 

Psycho 7 Splashes by Jim Pinkoski and Dennis Fujitake

Just the other, I was post'n about the beauty presence of Fujitake in TBG, when Russ reminded me again that Skywald was doing a lot of fanzine-like stuff in 1972, including, amongst many of the usual suspects, Dennis.  The classic saying is, "you don't have to tell me twice," well, in my case, you usually do haveta tell me twice (at least).  Anyhoo, here's two awesome splashes off a eBay, but please see Russ' link for the whole she-bang.  Thanks, Russ!  Two great fanzine artists at their zeniths

 

Not King Kull by John Severin

As I've said in the past, the best Kull is a Severin Kull, and vicey-versa, the best Severin is a Kull Severin.  Well......this is right there with a Kull Severin AND a Severin Kull, methinks

 

EvenMoreEmbiggened by Frank Frazetta

First image is bigger than the second, which I posted in the wayback (okay, just the beginning of the summer, but it feels long ago), and then some illos of Conan The Buccaneer from over the years.  I didn't gush about it back in June, but I'm way pleased they finally did a nice big print of the painting Fritz destroyed to make the Destroyer.  I know Frank said it was crap, but I've always loved it

 

Dennis Fujitake Rocks The Buyer's Guide

Okay, try'n to get this sequence right.  First is how a lot of us first saw Fujitake (didn't even know about the nifty fanzine Star Studded #18 until this century, and promptly obtained it).  Next is my all-time fav Fujitake, onea of the most fundundant images on here.  Then Dennis did a great one-page story for issue #7 (oops!  got so impatient for #8's cover, I messed up the sequence!).  Love the two table statues.  Then, his third (and last?) TBG cover.  Then an interior illo from beneath the che great Neal Adams' cover.  If he appears more in TBG, please holla  

 

Fandom Spectacular Dropped In!

Okay, it showed up in my mailbox, but I'm pretty stoked.  Bob Kline's cover is the highlight, and that's up better in the wayback, but there's a buncha Fantucchio(here's the intro of Mysterious Hero w/o the verbage), and probly the first reprint of Deadlock by Wally Wood from Weird Fantasy #17 (y'know, where we first hear phrases like Squa-tront and Spa-fon)

 

New Genesis Monitors by Jack Kirby

If these cool cats took to the sky in other parts of the Fourth World, please holla.  They asked me to be a hall monitor in middle school (junior high), then realized I was the main reason they needed a hall monitor

 

Catch Ya On The Rebound

New looks at recent stuff by George Metzger and Michael Golden

 

Triple Thor by John Fantucchio

Okay, noth'n new here, cept I finally put all three up together.  Onea  my fav things about fanzine passion has been see'n Big John's unique take on the "common" heroes and heroines.  If I can shrug off my Sherlock lethargy again, I'd like to put ALL his takes up together

 

Silver Surfer Six Page by John Buscema

Done the cover of this mag a bunch on here, but I dig this page even more than the cover

 

In Which A Great Mystery Is Solved by Frank Frazetta

Okay, I know I say this a lot, but never before with such a big grin on my face: Noth'n is new here except for the first image!  It's the original painting for The Moon Men!  After more than fifty years!  For milliennium (okay, for about a decade) and over a bazillion posts (okay, about a dozen), you've got to hear myself and others grouse about this "missing" painting.  None of the coffee table books mentioned it or said, "here it is," or anything.  It wasn't repainted like Buccaneer.  It wasn't stolen like Conan of Aquilonia.  Turns out that original is noted as being purchased in Sept 1974, a year or less after it was published (no publication date in the first Ace editions with this cover, but a Kent cig ad in the middle of onea my copies says 1973), and about a year before the first Frazetta coffee table book (Betty Ballantine was a super-genius). viola, now it all makes sense

 

 

Conan In The Garden by Barry Smith

Ohmyheck.  This original of the Robert E. Howard plate is just georgeous, and embiggens as much as you want

 

Detroit Triple Fan Fair 1969 by Jack Kirby

In the wayback, I was so happy to put up Jack's Loki w/o Coletta inks, but I didn't know where it was from

 

Who Is This Is?

Dig it so much!  I suspect it's George Metzger, but he didn't sign a lotta stuff, and I don't have this pub, so I dunno.  It's the back cover of the last issue (#16) of the "big people's" fanzine, Graphic Story Magazine, so it really is their parting shot.  George had a mighty presence in GSM, but hopefully someone can look inside and verify

 

The Silent Seven by Jim Steranko

This is start'n to sound like a broken record, but the only new image on here is that first one.  I guess we could call it an unused Unseen Shadow.  Then we have the three 7s from the wayback, and then my fav Steranko Shadow, for another silent cover-The Silent Death
