MaKiN’ LiNKs # 276

Here’s Gold Key’s Mighty Samson, a title a never appreciated back in the day but have latterly come to enjoy. Early issues of this post-nuclear adventure were by Otto Binder and Frank Thorne. This particular episode, like most later ones, is drawn by Jack Sparling.

In my opinion, one of the perfect writer/artist teams to come out of the eighties boom consists of Mike Baron and Steve Rude. Here is a fairly early issue of their signature Nexus that shows off their symbiotic relationship well.

Caniff-inspired artist Lee Elias did a lot of war comics in his day for various different comics publishers but here we have a heavily illustrated look at a late period Elias romance comic that just happens to have a war setting.

Finally, the Comics Cube is presumptuous enough to name the five greatest pre-Superman superheroes in comics. Some good, if obvious, choices here but take a look and see if you agree.
