MaKiN’ linKs # 263

Dan Flagg was a newspaper strip set during the Vietnam War era and created by Don Sherwood, an artist with a most impressive signature but who seemed to use a bit too much photo reference. I never realized the character was used in backup stories at Charlton, though.

Here’s an interesting essay about some controversy and bad blood between artists Howard Nostrand and Bob Powell, illustrated with a whole bunch of samples from the Bat Masterson newspaper strip.

Here’s the second (of three) parts of a beautiful Carl Barks storyboarded penciled “script” for one of his final actual comics works, for Gold Key’s Junior Woodchucks title in the 1970′s.

Speaking of Gold Key, around that same time they had an adaptation of the popular horror soap opera, Dark Shadows. While it wasn’t the most faithful adaptation ever, Joe Certa’s art gave it a style all its own and the series outlasted its TV version by several years.
