Robert E. Howard’s SOLOMON KANE is on his way to a cineplex near you but while you wait, here’s his first ever comics adaptation by Ralph Reese and Roy Thomas at Marvel from more than 35 years ago! Seems like only yesterday.

Speaking of seems like yesterday, so does 1967 to me but I really don’t recall it being all that much like the supposedly groovy world in Gold Key’s THE MODNIKS, seen here.

Yesterday we had some seventies (or was it eighties?) Russ Heath art. Today, here’s some fifties Heath work on a war story, one of his better genres.

From NOT BRAND ECHH, Marvel’s 1960′s answer to EC’s original 1950′s MAD, here’s Lee and Kirby with an insane lampoon of their own FANTASTIC FOUR…with the Silver Burper yet!
