Marvel stuff?

Norem did a load of great Marvel Comics covers, John, for the black & white magazines - Conan, Planet of the Apes, Deadly Hands of Kung Fu, etc. Brilliant.

Had I bothered to take 2 seconds to read what you wrote instead of diving into the pics (hard not to do) I woulda had a clue!

Brilliant, indeed! I looked him up and knew him immediately! In fact, I just scored a super cool poster of one of his covers for SAVAGE SWORD on ebay! How thrilled I was to find him to be the artist of one of my first bought, and all time favorite comic covers EVER: PLANET OF THE APES #5. What I wouldn't give for a poster of THAT! Thanks for the schooling you're giving me, Joe!
