Joel-
I got to meet him in New York earlier this year, and was very happy to get to talk to him more at the con. I wish I could've picked his brain for a bit more, as I do alot of statue/product design these days.
He did a great Space Ghost & Birdman sketch for me, and a Captain Action sketch for my brother...

Nice Doc Gerry.  The "Ditko" easter egg is a great touch.

Thanks for the info on Ruben. I'm really digging his style of art.

Legion of Super-Heroes Annual #2, pg 35

Pencils by Curt Swan, inks by Larry Mahlstedt

Great page from one of my favorite Legion storylines--loved the true origin of Validus!  I particularly like how Swan illustrated him: someone you definitely wouldn't want to mess with!

One thing that really surprised me about this page is how big it is: 13.25 X 20.5--was this standard for Baxter paper?

Great pick-up Lloyd!  I'm jealous big time!  Swan, Legion awesome combo!  How'd you pick that up?  I'd like me a Swan page big time.  Way to go!

Have to echo Brad, Lloyd: great pick-up! Swan's Legion always looks nice.

Thanks, guys! For me, Swan was the definitive Legion artist, and they always looked 'right' whenever he drew them--no matter the decade they looked like the same people he drew back in the Adventure days, only a little older. I miss that kind of visual continuity in today's comics, where a character might not even look the same from panel to panel.

This page does present a happy problem for me, though: it's quite a bit bigger than my 14 x17 portfolio, so how to store/display it?
