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?

I remember when both of those comics came out, but the resemblance never occurred to me. You have a great eye, and an equally great memory! Always look forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteThank you, SF --appreciate the kind words.
DeleteI have some more of Rich Buckler's FF run that I'll post starting in January. Until then, it'll be sporadic stuff like this--glad you enjoy it.
Well, just a deliberate homage, not a swipe so much. The Cap cover is more dramatic.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's a great cover to homage, isn't it?
