"... & Joe," I Said

Made it back alive and restocked for the month (mostly - you know how it is with fresh produce, eh?)

Now that i've had a little time to prep the artwork, let's follow up this morning's post of Norman Maurer's tale from One Million Years Ago with a bit of Cave Fun from the other half of the team - Joe Kubert - and the first episode of an Odd little series entitled Danny Dreams.
Let's let Joe explain...


While there were no further issues of One Million Years Ago, Danny did return for more adventures - not quite 10 all told.

Cave Fun With Norman & Joe

Insane day brewing, with only a very short time free to post at the moment. So let's sidestep on our way back to the cavemen and visit with Joe Kubert's old partner, Norman Maurer.

I know some of you are scratching your heads and wondering "Kubert had a partner?" 
Yep - from way back in early days...


The two of them produced one of the great classic caveman comics, One Million Years Ago, launching Tor in the process. Here's their introduction...


...and here's Norman saying, "Y'know.... let's just forget all that research and have some fun!"


Must run - have fun!
