Fantastic Four #82 (1969) Jack Kirby |
Comic book swipes and homages, along with art that appears to have been--at least in part!-- inspired by other art. And there's lots of the Silver Age Fantastic Four here because that was just about my favorite comic book back then!
Many of you have let me know that some of my image pairings & arrangements pop up in other venues such as Facebook Swipe groups (esp. the great COMICS SWIPES Facebook group). Well, I'm flattered the posts are popular and that people enjoy PANELOCITY's swipes and "inspired bys", regardless of where they are presented. After all, the Internet is meant for sharing, right?

If I didn't know that Buckler hired Perez to find swipes for every panel, I would think this one a coincidence. The only thing these two panels have in common is the 3/4 angle on Medusa's face, and that's pretty standard.
ReplyDeleteYes, very standard shot. However I think the face (outline, shape) was possibly traced. Also the face size and the face's basic positioning in the panels match up. By comparison her body in the #153 panel looks very awkward, as if it was an afterthought and done freehand.
DeleteJust FYI, I do post panels here that merely remind me of other panels. Check out the header text underneath the blog title; it's much more than swipes or even homages.
