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?

Standard Subby Stance--by Two Masters

Sub-Mariner: sinewy, studly, surly.
Sub-Mariner John Buscema
1966: Tales to Astonish #82-Jack Kirby                          1968:  Sub-Mariner #1-John Buscema                    





























A mirror image of the Buscema art was was used for the cover of Tales to Astonish volume 2  #1, so here's another pair to compare and contrast: 
John Buscema Sub-Mariner
                                                                      1979: Tales to Astonish vol. 2 #1  Buscema

      Thanks for stopping by, SF! That is a memorable cover, isn't it? IMO some of John Buscema's best work was on that Sub-Mariner series.
