BIG JOHN'S LEGACY 06: The John Buscema PRE-MARVEL II / INTERVIEW WITH RODNEY BUCHEMI

In previous chapter of Big John's Legacy, I announced to appear more pre-Marvel work of the great John in future posts, and here's another helping. The first two images are both the covers of comic noir Wanted and display the art of John Buscema quite novice. In the three following showing quality art major and a stroke much more mature, and can be recognized much better the style of the great John; are three original No. 30 Series Indian Chief (Dell Publishing), for which Buscema illustrated about 60 pages spread between their n º 30 to 33 (1958-59).

special mention the last five pages, which belong to the comic 7th Voyage of Sinbad, also published in 1958 in the collection Four Color Comics, editorial title where Dell published comic book adaptations of famous films of the era. In my opinion, this work of John Buscema is one of the true highlights of his career and represents by John Buscema closer to Harold Foster, one of his biggest influences. From my point of view, entry and 60's and especially in its newly re-entered the world of comics in the hands of Marvel Comics, the style of John was coming increasingly under the influence of Alex Raymond and away a bit of Harold Foster, a par to introduce into their own style of storytelling to something way of Jack Kirby Marvel. Perhaps this John Buscema the 7th Voyage of Sinbad is more static than John Buscema we're used to seeing characters as illustrating the Avengers, Conan and Silver Surfer (Foster was also more static Raymond), but that was great! !:

THE ARTIST PERFECT 16 (Epilogue): the cover artist PERFECT

Here's the epilogue to The Perfect Pencils. At the end of the previous post air threw a question: At what part of the comic give more importance many publishers? ... good now it's clear what I meant, to home.

The cover is the first thing potential buyers see the comic. With a great cover, you can get to flipping through a comic book which, without that cover, it would have made no fucking case ... or vice versa. Stan Lee, for example, was always obsessed with the covers of their comics, it was not uncommon to John Romita asked him to retouch faces and details of many portals, Kirby were or who they were ...

I sincerely believe that the latter Top 5 was necessary to have everything completely. For more genres than we've played in The Perfect Pencils in a comic book cover is always necessary: \u200b\u200b
