If only DC would get on the stick and start doing their own "visionary" series, there's some incredible work waiting to be collected: The Best of Frank Robbins... Alex Toth... Bob Oksner... Nick Cardy.... Mike Kaluta... sigh.Kalli "Pops" Gustavhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15088037612511113290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26763514.post-1161818647886628302006-10-25T16:24:00.000-07:002006-10-25T16:24:00.000-07:00Thanks!! But I've already got it. I haven't "read" it per se, but I've looked at it a ton. The best stuff in there is Kirby's take on Green Arrow. I think Elias was more of a cover man, but I have yet to see much of his comics work outside of that GA book. His latter day stuff for Marvel was pretty crappy. For some reason they didn't let him ink his own stuff! What's the point of THAT??Ted Mayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09444299307053137157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26763514.post-1161814602319082482006-10-25T15:16:00.000-07:002006-10-25T15:16:00.000-07:00I really like Elias, too--I wish there were more reprints of his stuff. I got the Green Arrow Showcase book, but those are so dull...if you want my copy you can have itDavid Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03060129876805352002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26763514.post-1161808289570358712006-10-25T13:31:00.000-07:002006-10-25T13:31:00.000-07:00Whatta you mean, you don't have a CHECKLIST? Dave I'm shocked!<BR/>Actually - yeah, I had the same problem a while back in Chicago trying to figure out which issues of Human Fly Robbins pencilled. Of course the other dude who worked on that mag was my second favorite cartoonist from Manchester, England: Lee Elias.Ted Mayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09444299307053137157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26763514.post-1161804580795566752006-10-25T12:29:00.000-07:002006-10-25T12:29:00.000-07:00Shit, that Batman suicide page is great! I wanted to get some Robbins comics at Comicon this year, but like you said you can't tell what comics have his stuff in 'em.<BR/><BR/>Nice to see some new stuff on here, by the wayDavid Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03060129876805352002noreply@blogger.com
