Yesterday i made mention of stumbling across a story drawn by John Tartaglione which i enjoyed the splash panel artwork, but we went off in a different direction.
Today, we loop back. Here's that 7 page story...
This 6 page tale is the first confirmed story pencilled by Tartaglione...
This 5 pager continues our cycle of picking up one thread one pulling at another. In this case, Joe Maneely - how have we not seen him at all yet on this blog? (Same way we hadn't seen Tartag, obviously. But we'll be back)...
This 4 page tale is probably my favorite of the batch, just because...
This 3 page story is the first time i know of John working directly with Stan Lee, long before his best known works for Marvel...
This 2 pager is or is not the first of his 2 page tales, depending on whether or not you count illustrations for the 2-page text features. (Today, we're not)
And, lastly - his first confirmed cover for a 1 page piece -
By the way - did you know that his son, John C., is an artist in his own right? I'll try to herd the ol' brain around so show some of his paintings.
