In "The Living Mummy" page three middle panel, the look of the art made me think it was by Ditko, he had a knack for art like that.
ReplyDeleteManny Stallman was an interesting artist. His 1950's artwork was better than some of the latter comics work he did. I did like this story.
Delete'How Many Times Can You Die'was great! Bill Everett did his usual superb job with the art, but the story was good, too. Everett did such a good job making the main character look malevolent and the other guy like a shlemiel & obvious fall-guy that I was too busy thinking 'Don't do it, you shmuck.' to see the double-cross coming. And after that the continuing cascade of reversals kept me engaged & interested.
ReplyDeleteEverett was good across all genres. You haven't posted any straight romance for a while, and Everett did great work in that, too. His fifties superhero work would be appreciated as well, as would be his war stories. OK, just anything by Everett...
I will look around for more Everett work he is one of my favorite artists too. I couldn't find any credits for the script but maybe Stan Lee?
ReplyDeletePersonally, I was wondering whether Everett had written it himself, but there were a number of writers floating aroun Atlas at that time, weren't there.
