Ayers published Radio Ray, his first comic strip, in the military newspaper Radio Post in 1942 while serving in the Army Air Corps during World War II. Afterward, his first attempt to break into the general comics field was a submission to Western Publishing's Dell Comics imprint. "I approached them," Ayers said in a 1996 interview. "I had a story written and drawn. They wanted to wrap a book around it. I got into it, but Dell decided to scrap the project. It was an adventure thing, boy and girl; the boy wanted to be a trumpet player. The girl kept feeding the jukebox and he'd play along to Harry James or whatever sort of thing. It didn't make it, but it got me started where I wanted to be in the business." After making a few connections during this venture, in 1947 Ayers studied under Burne Hogarth in the first class of Hogarth's new institution, called New York City's Cartoonists and Illustrators School (renamed the School of Visual Arts in 1956). Joe Shuster, co-creator of Superman, would visit the class, and Ayers eventually visited his nearby studio. "Next thing I knew," Ayers said, "I was penciling a bit here and there." In a 2005 interview, Ayers elaborated that, "Joe had me pencil some of his Funnyman stories after seeing my drawings at Hogarth's evening class" and "sent me to Vin Sullivan of Magazine Enterprises." (Sullivan also became an editor at DC Comics.) There, Sullivan "let me try the Jimmy Durante strip. I submitted my work and got the job." (As an aside for TV trivia buffs, Ayers' hands appear onscreen as those of a cartoonist played by actor Don Briggs in "The Comic Strip Murders," a 1949 episode of the CBS television series Suspense.) Ayers went on to pencil and ink western stories in the late 1940s for Magazine Enterprises' A-1 Comics and Trail Colt, and for Prize Comics' Prize Comics Western. With writer Ray Krank, Ayers created the horror-themed Western character Ghost Rider in Tim Holt #11 (1949), a comic named after actor Tim Holt of Treasure Of The Seirra Madre and several western films. The character appeared in stories through the run of Tim Holt, Red Mask, A-1 Comics, Bobby Benson's B-Bar-B Riders, and the 14-issue solo series The Ghost Rider (1950–1954), It continued until the introduction of the Comics Code later that same decade. (After the trademark to the character's name and motif lapsed due to non-use, Marvel Comics later debuted its own near-identical, horror-free version of the character in Ghost Rider #1 in February 1967, written by Roy Thomas and Gary Friedrich. And who did the art? Ayers, the original Ghost Rider artist, of course.) In 1952, while continuing to freelance for Magazine Enterprises, Ayers began a long freelance run at Atlas Comics, the 1950s forerunner of Marvel Comics. He drew horror stories in such titles as Amazing Adventures, Astonishing Worlds, Mystic, and Menace. He also did some "Tales" titles - Mystery Tales, Strange Tales, and Uncanny Tales, as well as some "Into" titles - Adventures Into Terror, Journey Into The Unknown, and of course Journey Into Mystery. His work also included the brief revival of the 1940s Golden Age of comics superhero the Human Torch, from Marvel's 1940s predecessor Timely Comics, in Young Men # 21-24 (June 1953 - Feb. 1954). An additional, unpublished Human Torch story drawn by Ayers belatedly appeared in Marvel Super-Heroes #16 (Sept. 1968). During the 1950s, Ayers also drew freelance for Charlton Comics, including for the horror comic The Thing and the satirical series Eh!. (And remember, the huge orange worm-like Thing in this comic was done years before the huge rock-like thing in The Fantastic Four by Jack Kirby for Marvel Comics appeared in the 1960s.) Speaking of Kirby, Ayers first teamed with him at Atlas shortly before the company became Marvel Comics. As the comic-book legend's second regular Marvel inker, following Christopher Rule, Ayers would ink countless Kirby covers and stories, including such landmark comics as most of the afore-mentioned earliest issues of The Fantastic Four, and a large amount of western and "pre-superhero Marvel" monster stories in the also afore-mentioned "Tales" and "Into" titles. Because creator credits were not routinely given at the time, a standard database disagrees over the duo's first published collaboration: The Grand Comics Database cites the cover of Wyatt Earp #24 (Aug. 1959), which Atlas Tales lists as inked by George Klein. But the GCD tentatively lists Ayers as inker of the Kirby cover for that same month's Strange Tales #70, for which Atlas Tales credits Ayers without qualification. However, Ayers himself revealed in 1996 that "the first work I did with Jack was the cover of Wyatt Earp #25 [Oct. 1959]. Stan Lee [Editor-in- chief] liked it and sent me another job, 'The Martian Who Stole My Body,' for Journey Into Mystery #57 [Dec. 1959]. Dick Ayers at a recent comics convention. (Click pic to enlarge.) Journey Into Mystery 87. Copyright © 1962 Marvel Comics (Click pic to enlarge.) "I also began Sky Masters, the [syndicated] newspaper strip," Ayers continued, as he addressed another point of debate. "There is a lot of confusion on this; people think Wally Wood inked them all, because they're signed Kirby/Wood. But that was Dave Wood, the writer [no relation to artist Wally Wood]. I began Sky Masters with the 36th Sunday page; Jack's pencils, my inks, in September of 1959. "I ended the Sundays in January of 1960. I also did the dailies for a period of [over] two years, from September of '59 to December of '61. These were complete inks; I was the only one doing it at the time. Of course, Wally Wood also worked on that strip, in the beginning, before me." Ayers went on to ink scores of Kirby Western and monster stories, including such much-reprinted tales as "I Created The Colossus!" (Tales of Suspense #14, Feb. 1961), "Goom! The Thing From Planet X!" (Tales of Suspense #15, March 1961), and "Fin Fang Foom!" (Strange Tales #89, Oct. 1961). There were also two stories in the first comic book formally published by the newly christened Marvel Comics, Amazing Adventures #3 (Aug. 1961). As Marvel Comics introduced its the Marvel Age Of Superheroes in the early 1960s, Ayers inked Kirby on the first appearances of Ant-Man (Tales to Astonish #27 and 35, Jan. and Sept. 1962), Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos (issues #1-3, May-Sept. 1963), and the revamped Rawhide Kid (beginning with The Rawhide Kid #17, Aug. 1960). On the second and several subsequent early appearances of Thor (Journey into Mystery #84-89, Sept. 1962 - Feb. 1963), plus others; on Fantastic Four #6-20 (Sept. 1962 - Nov. 1963), and the spin-off Human Torch solo series in Strange Tales (starting with its debut in issue #101); and on some early issues of The Incredible Hulk, among other series. Additionally, Ayers took over from Kirby as Sgt. Fury penciler with issue #8 (July 1964), beginning a 10-year run that — except for #13 (which he inked over Kirby's pencils), and five issues by other pencilers - continued virtually unbroken through #120 (with the series running Ayers reprints every-other-issue through most but not all from #79 on).

    Copyright 2013 Shawn Patrick Gilmore THE INVENTION OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL: UNDERGROUND COMIX AND CORPORATE AESTHETICS BY SHAWN PATRICK GILMORE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Cary Nelson Associate Professor James Hansen Associate Professor Stephanie Foote ii Abstract This dissertation explores what I term the invention of the graphic novel, or more specifically, the process by which stories told in comics (or graphic narratives) form became longer, more complex, concerned with deeper themes and symbolism, and formally more coherent, ultimately requiring a new publication format, which came to be known as the graphic novel. This format was invented in fits and starts throughout the twentieth century, and I argue throughout this dissertation that only by examining the nuances of the publishing history of twentieth-century comics can we fully understand the process by which the graphic novel emerged. In particular, I show that previous studies of the history of comics tend to focus on one of two broad genealogies: 1) corporate, commercially-oriented, typically superhero-focused comic books, produced by teams of artists; 2) individually-produced, counter-cultural, typically autobiographical underground comix and their subsequent progeny. In this dissertation, I bring these two genealogies together, demonstrating that we can only truly understand the evolution of comics toward the graphic novel format by considering the movement of artists between these two camps and the works that they produced along the way.
