Spanish artist Esteban Maroto blew away the talented competition at Warren in the early 1970′s with his innovative and unique designs, layouts and storytelling techniques. Here’s “Gender Bender” from Vampirella # 20.

Another spanking new specialized comics blog is Gay For Lois Lane, designed to celebrate Mort Weisinger’s long-running oddball series starring Superman’s girlfriend (and later-even though the general public never seems to realize it-wife). Get in on the ground floor with the first posting here:
