Bring to Life

Joe Kubert was my comic book idol in the Silver and Bronze Ages. I collected everything he did, not matter how minor (read ads for toys and ads with Ed McMahon in 'em). He has been part of all the ages us geeks worship. Not all his stories were super wonderful, but his art made 'em seem that way. As he says in the promo directly below, he had the pleasure to bring cartoon characters to life.

Here he introduces Firehair in a couple of promos, and then below those is a short Firehair story from one of the Son of Tomahawk issues.

    Thomas,

    Kubert is an artist I've also admired and followed since the late 1950's...one of the greats! Have you seen all of the art he has consigned to Heritage that goes on the block Friday? There was an article in the New York Times about it...take a look if you want;
