Cool Air, one of my favorite early Warren jobs by Bernie Wrightson-later acknowledged as Stephen King’s favorite artist-, turns up over at Grantbridge Street today for your visual enjoyment.

Comic book covers are an art form all their own and some of the best-designed ones of all time were found on 1960′s issues of Marvel’s Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.-not just the ones from Steranko either!

The Charlton Story offers up a nice review of Craig’s recent volume, The Art of Ditko, that ends up with a not-in-the-book reprinting of a highly-stylized late seventies Many Ghosts of Doctor Graves story.

Finally today, I am never going to turn down the chance to recommend the great newspaper strip, Alley Oop. Here’s a sequence from 1964, juts about the time I discovered it myself!
