Early Kubert... great Kubert!By Diego CordobaOnce again, I seem to be the only person relishing in these early works by some of the most talented American comic book artists of all time that Fantagraphics is reprinting in collectible volumes (Alex Toth, Mort Meskin, Steve Ditko). And I don't know why. Am I the only person who's eagerly awaiting these reprints? If so, I don't mind... but I wish there were more people out there appreciating the great effort Fantagraphics is doing in reprinting these long-forgotten comics. And I'm not even getting paid by them for saying so, as I can get quite nasty sometimes. Oh well...Concerning this book, which is hardbound (yeah!), it collects, contrary to what the title says, not only Weird Horrors by Joe Kubert, but just about everything else he did in the '50's (and he worked for practically every other comic book publisher out there, even EC; though his EC + DC work aren't collected here), and it features everything from Crime-does-not-pay- type stories, to westerns, adventure and even humorous stories (Miss Pepper... anyone?). Once again, the stories have been sufficiently restored to whiten-out the yellowing pages, correcting some color misalignments, but kept with the original thick halftoned color printing of the time. The art varies from early not-quite-good Kubert (he was in his early twenties), to his very good work from the mid-fifties. I actually prefer Kubert's work from around that time, which was a sort of hybrid between Frank Robbins and Milton Caniff, but with elements of what would later be the Kubert-style. In those days, Kubert inked mostly with a brush, and it's incredible how his work back then reminds me of Spanish artist Jordi Bernet (of Torpedo and now Jonah Hex fame). It seems both grew up loving the same artist: Frank Robbins. I just love those western stories Kubert drew, and I don't know why he never became famous for drawing westerns, and instead for war stories.All in all, there's something for every one here (his humorous work is quite good, something I was totally unaware of)... and for those of you who believe since it's early Kubert it ain't very good... well, you're in for a surprise. It's really good! As I said before, some early stuff is slightly out of proportion concerning the body drawings (apparently he didn't excel in drawing superheroes back then), but for the most part it's quite good. Again, I prefer Kubert from the '50's than the rushed penwork of Kubert drawing Sgt. Rock (though my favorite Kubert remains Viking Prince).If you like Jordi Bernet's early work in Torpedo, you'll love this book by Kubert. I can't recommend it enough (along with the other FB books collecting Ditko, Meskin and Toth work from the '50's). And if you love comic books from the '50's (and who doesn't? as those were the best ever), this one is for you!Let's help keep this work alive and in print, folks, before they disappear forever!8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Essential for Kubert FansBy LazarusAlthough Joe Kubert is often thought of as a DC artist, for much of his early career he also freelanced at other companies. This book collects a variety of his work from the forties and fifties,; it is not chronologically arranged, but you'll see a range of Kubert styles, ranging from the promising line work of a talented beginner to the lush brushwork of an early master. Some of these stories have been reproduced in black and white, some not at all, but here they are all well produced in color, faithful but improved versions of the original newsprint printing. Especially beautiful are the Son of Sinbad stories which make you understand why DC editor Bob Kanigher immediately thought of Kubert when he needed an artist for The Viking Prince. There's also a nice introduction by Kubert expert and biographer Bill Schelly, whose fine hand is otherwise visible only in the story selections, and, I suspect, the book's high production values. I hope you'll buy this book so that there will be a volume two. I'm a little concerned that the title and non-prominence of Kubert's name on the cover may lead some prospective buyers to overlook this treat.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Blood and SweatBy Jack HinkKubert took inspiration from Hal Foster, but made something dark, pulpy, and sexy out of it. Whether it was his '70s "stealth minimalism," or earlier, more labor-intensive, work like this, his art has always woven beauty with high-test virility in a way that only Frazetta could top. Thirty-three of Sgt. Rock cartoonist Joe Kubert’s crime and horror comics, collected in one volume. Joe Kubert sealed his reputation as one of the greatest American comic-book cartoonists of all time with the four-color adventures of Sgt. Rock of Easy Company, Enemy Ace, and Tarzan, all done for DC Comics during the 1960s and 1970s (themselves already the subject of archival editions)... but he had been working in comics since the 1940s. In fact, young Kubert produced an exciting, significant body of work as a freelance artist for a variety of comic book publishers in the postwar era, in a glorious variety of non-super hero genres: horror, crime, science fiction, western, romance, humor, and more. For the first time, 33 of the best of these stories have been collected in one full-color volume, with a special emphasis on horror and crime. The Kubert work in this book is that of a burgeoning talent attacking the work with tremendous panache, and in the process, developing a style that became one of the most distinctive in the medium. Since these stories were written and drawn in the pre-Comics Code era, they are more thrilling, violent and sexy (by contemporary standards) than much of his later, Code-constrained work. And just the titles of the comic books from which these stories are taken are wonderfully evocative of a bygone era of four-color fun: Cowpuncher, Abbott and Costello Comics, Three Stooges, Eerie, Planet Comics, Meet Miss Pepper, Strange Terrors, Green Hornet Comics, Whack, Jesse James, Out of This World, Crime Does Not Pay, Weird Thrillers, Police Lineup, and Hollywood Confessions. As with Fantagraphics’ acclaimed Steve Ditko and Bill Everett Archives series, Weird Horrors and Daring Adventures boasts state-of-the-art restoration and retouching, and historical notes by the book’s editor Bill Schelly, author of the Art of Joe Kubert art book and Man of Rock Kubert biography. 240 From BooklistKubert is best known for his lengthy stint at DC Comics beginning in the mid-1950s, where he drew such iconic characters as Sgt. Rock, Hawkman, and Tarzan. But before that, he cut his teeth at a variety of small publishers, working in every genre the field had to offer. The generous sampling of his early work collected in this hardcover volume demonstrates the diversity of Kubert’s work in this period, from horror and science fiction to westerns, crime, and even humor. The earliest, from 1944 (when Kubert was only 17), are competent but crude, although no more unpolished than most comics from the era. Within a few years, however, he developed into one of the medium’s leading stylists, with a distinctively recognizable style marked by dramatic compositions and strategic use of solid-black areas to create atmosphere. Kubert would continue to draw comics steadily right up to his death last year at age 85; these early tales lay the foundation for that enduring and productive career. --Gordon FlaggAbout the AuthorApproaching the middle of his ninth decade, Joe Kubert draws with more vigor than most cartoonists one third his age.Bill Schelly is an Eisner-nominated comic-book and film historian; he lives in Seattle.

Marvel began its revitalization as a publishing entity in 1961 with the release of Fantastic Four #1, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's remarkable comic book where modern superheroes transformed by science shared center stage with monsters, romance and even their golden age counterparts. The success of Fantastic Four led to other superhero titles as Marvel slowly transformed its line in that direction. By 1966, comic book fans had begun to catch up with the special goings-on at Marvel, and the mainstream media started to follow, intrigued by the mix of genres and the real world touches individual books brought into their fantasy storylines. Combining sales, public acclaim and media interest, the flagship title of Marvel's new comics was The Amaz- ing Spider-Man, the story of a teenage superhero trying to do the right thing despite having to shoulder a lifetime's worth of responsibility. The year Marvel broke big was also the year Stan Lee decided that the departing artist Steve Ditko would be replaced by veteran cartoonist John Romita. In the 40 years since, Romita and his namesake son John Jr. have been the primary artists behind some of the best and most important runs in comic book history, all for Marvel Comics, as the company has become a worldwide presence in books, licensing and film.

Dale Love & Death (20) The stories we sit up late to hear are love stories. It seems that we cannot know enough about this riddle of our lives. We go back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning. Nothing could be more familiar than love. Nothing eludes us so completely. Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook Q: What does love feel like? A: It’s not a feeling; it’s a relationship, a way of life. Martha Nussbaum, philosopher, in an interview, The Guardian, October 2007 True, death itself is nothing; but the thought of it is like a mirror. A mirror, too, is empty, without content, yet it reflects us back to ourself in a reverse image. To try to contemplate the meaning of my death is in fact to reveal to myself the meaning of my life. Herbert Fingarette, Death: Philosophical Soundings The comfort that we can gain from the hard cruel truth of death is that life itself is wonderful, full of love and full of transcendental moments – that’s what really matters. Jim Crace, novelist, Love and death are oftentimes experienced as seismic upheavals in our lives; we are changed in puzzling, perhaps even mysterious ways by these two forces, sometimes delightfully and sometimes terrifyingly or painfully.

    JOE SINNOTT “THE WORLD’S GREATEST COMIC INKER!” Interviewed by Alan Doshna The Official Joe Sinnott Website http://www.joesinnott.com/ Few are the artists in any field who can dependably produce consistently outstanding work in their given field. Such a one, however, is renowned comic book penciller and inker Joe Sinnott.Born in Upstate New York in 1926, Joe is probably best known for his long tenure on The Fantastic Four, embellishing Jack Kirby’s pencils, The Mighty Thor, Captain America and others. Besides K irby, other whose work he has inked is a literal or “graphic”) Who’s Who” of comic book greats, such as Steve Ditko, Gil Kane, Neal Adams, John Buscema, John Byrne, Carmine Infantino and many, many more. Joe took some time for an interview with us recently. Q: Could you share with us a little bit about your early life and background? A: Oh, sure. Of course I was born in Saugerties, I still live in Saugerties. And I spent three years down in the city when I went to the Cartoonists and Illustrators School (Note: later called The School of Visual Arts). Of course, before that, I served in the Navy Seabees in WW II. And I always drew, I know you’d probably want to know that, ever since I can remember, when I was three years old. My mother had a boarding house, and one of the teachers gave me a box of crayons for my birthday when I was three years old, and it had an Indian on it. I can still recall the Indian, and I drew that Indian over and over and over again with those crayons, and we also had another roomer in the house that had been in the German submarine service in WW I.

  • The Jewish Comic Book Industry, 1933-1954
    “THE WHOLE FURSHLUGGINER OPERATION”: THE JEWISH COMIC BOOK INDUSTRY, 1933-1954 By Sebastian T. Mercier A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History – Doctor of Philosophy 2018 ABSTRACT “THE WHOLE FURSHLUGGINER OPERATION”: THE JEWISH COMIC BOOK INDUSTRY, 1933-1954 By Sebastian T. Mercier Over the course of the twentieth century, the comic book industry evolved from an amateur operation into a major institution of American popular culture. Comic books, once considered mere cultural ephemera or quite simply “junk,” became a major commodity business. The comic book industry emerged out of the pulp magazine industry. According to industry circulation data, new comic book releases increased from 22 in 1939 to 1125 titles by the end of 1945. Comic book scholars have yet to adequately explain the roots of this historical phenomenon, particularly its distinctly Jewish composition. Between the years of 1933 and 1954, the comic book industry operated as a successful distinct Jewish industry. The comic book industry emerged from the pulp magazine trade. Economic necessity, more than any other factor, attracted Jewish writers and artists to the nascent industry. Jewish publishers adopted many of the same business practices they inherited from the pulps. As second-generation Jews, these young men shared similar experiences growing up in New York City. Other creative industries actively practiced anti-Semitic hiring procedures. Many Jewish artists came to comic book work with very little professional experience in cartooning and scripting. The comic book industry allowed one to learn on the job. The cultural world comic books emerged out of was crucially important to the industry’s development.

  • The Reflection of Americanism in Milton Caniff's Work
    NORTEAMÉRICA, Año 13, número 1, enero-junio de 2018 Recibido: 28/10/2017 Aceptado: 13/03/2018 • DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.20999/nam.2018.a008 The Reflection of Americanism in Milton Caniff’s Work La presencia del americanismo en la obra de Milton Caniff FRANCISCO SÁEZ DE ADANA* ABSTRACT This article looks at what many authors have termed “Americanism” in the work of Milton Caniff, which allows us to trace this ideological current’s evolution throughout the twentieth century. Caniff’s work shifts from support for Chinese Communist resistance against the Japa- nese invasion in the pre-World War II Sino-Japanese War, to the crusade of a character like Steve Canyon against Communism during the Cold War, largely following U.S. American ideology in each of these historical moments. This ideological evolution is the central object of this study. Key words: Americanism, Milton Caniff,Terry and the Pirates, Steve Canyon, Sino-Japanese War, Cold War. RESUMEN Este artículo muestra la presencia de lo que muchos autores han denominado americanismo en la obra de Milton Caniff, la cual permite trazar la evolución de dicha corriente ideológica a lo largo del siglo XX. En este sentido, la obra de Caniff pasa de apoyar la resistencia comunista china en contra de la invasión japonesa durante la guerra chino/japonesa antes de la segunda guerra mundial, a retratar la cruzada de un personaje como Steve Canyon contra el comunismo en tiempos de la guerra fría, siguiendo decididamente la ideología estadunidense en cada uno de estos momentos. Tal evolución ideológica es el objeto central del presente estudio.

  • Editor & Publisher International Year Books
    Content Survey & Selective Index For Editor & Publisher International Year Books *1929-1949 Compiled by Gary M. Johnson Reference Librarian Newspaper & Current Periodical Room Serial & Government Publications Division Library of Congress 2013 This survey of the contents of the 1929-1949 Editor & Publisher International Year Books consists of two parts: a page-by-page selective transcription of the material in the Year Books and a selective index to the contents (topics, names, and titles) of the Year Books. The purpose of this document is to inform researchers about the contents of the E&P Year Books in order to help them determine if the Year Books will be useful in their work. Secondly, creating this document has helped me, a reference librarian in the Newspaper & Current Periodical Room at the Library of Congress, to learn about the Year Books so that I can provide better service to researchers. The transcript was created by examining the Year Books and recording the items on each page in page number order. Advertisements for individual newspapers and specific companies involved in the mechanical aspects of newspaper operations were not recorded in the transcript of contents or added to the index. The index (beginning on page 33) attempts to provide access to E&P Year Books by topics, names, and titles of columns, comic strips, etc., which appeared on the pages of the Year Books or were mentioned in syndicate and feature service ads. The headings are followed by references to the years and page numbers on which the heading appears. The individual Year Books have detailed indexes to their contents.

  • Why Did the Mainstream Media Ignore Al Capp's 100Th Birthday?
    Why did the mainstream media ignore Al Capp’s 100th birthday? excerpted from the July 2010 edition of Christian Crusade Newspaper now in our 58th year of publication ~ www.ChristianCrusade.com Billy James Hargis II, publisher ~ Keith Wilkerson, managing editor The 100th birthday of cartoonist Al Capp, has come and gone, ignored by the hundreds of newspapers that used to carry his satirical daily comic strip “Li’l Abner,” In today’s politically correct environment, Capp’s centennial didn’t rate mention since he was a conservative who mercilessly made fun of such liberal heroes as Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson and Teddy Kennedy. His comic strip began in 1934, when the 25-year-old cartoonist had an idea for a daily comic strip featuring hillbillies. He’d just spent several years ghostwriting “Joe Palooka,” a popular strip by cartoonist Ham Fisher, who hired Capp when he ran out of ideas. Capp’s new strip starred Li’l Abner Yokum Abner was the simple and muscular, poor but lazy, uneducated but good-natured hero of Dogpatch. He lived with Mammy and Pappy Yokum and devoted much of his energy into avoiding matrimony with the beautiful, intelligent and industrious Daisy Mae, his devoted and faithful girlfriend. During the 1950s, Capp surrendered to pressure from the strip’s millions of daily fans and let the couple marry. Their wedding was such a national event that the happy couple made the cover of Life magazine. When it debuted, Li’l Abner was picked up by only eight newspapers. However in the midst of the Great Depression, the poor but always hopeful Dogpatchers were a nationwide hit.
