Makin’ Links # 30

A somewhat silly summary of a story from Quality’s UNCLE SAM QUARTERLY #1 with some nice art samples by later MAD-man Dave Berg and SPIRIT creator Will Eisner can be found at SLAY MONSTROBOT OF THE DEEEP today.

Chris of INVINCIBLE SUPER BLOG fame guest-posts for PRISM COMICS’ QUEER EYE ON COMICS and serves up an equally silly look at Jerry Siegel’s 1964 LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES story, REVOLT OF THE GIRL LEGIONAIRES as seen though jaded modern eyes.

The BARRY WINDSOR-SMITH UNOFFICIAL BLOG is a Spanish language blog which I’m sorry to say I didn’t bother to translate. I was too busy looking at all of the intricately detailed art reprinted including the rare KULL OF ATLANTIS.

I had the chance to meet John Stanley at a Con in Philadelphia in 1977 and I passed because I’d never heard of him. The fact that he was the guest of honor at a Con where all of the hot young guys from the Studio (Jones, Wrightson, Kaluta and Windsor-Smith) should have made me pay more attention but hey, I was 18 and thought I knew everything. That said, I now LOVE Stanley and STANLEY STORIES hass some timely LITTLE LULU Halloween foolishness today!
