PART TWELVE Of The MARVELLOUS MISSING LINK!


Copyright REBELLION

A while back, Sturdy STEVE HOLLAND - of BEAR ALLEY BLOG - was going to publish a book reprinting every MISSING LINK episode (plus the series it morphed into with its 16th episode) originally featured in FANTASTIC in the late 1960s.  Unfortunately however, for various reasons, the project was abandoned, meaning that a lot of frustrated POWER COMIC followers were deprived of a rare treat.

Hopefully, presenting the initial adventures on my blog might lead to renewed interest, and result in a revival of Steve's project, either by him or other parties.  LUIS BERMEJO's art deserves to be sensitively coloured and presented not only to former Fantastic Fans, but also a brand-new generation of readers who would be sure to welcome Linky into their hearts.  What do all you Criv-ites think of the strip thus far?  Feel free to let me know in the comments section.
    


HOW TO BE A COMIC BOOK ARTIST - THE MARVEL WAY...

From NOT BRAND ECHH #11, Mirthful MARIE SEVERIN shows how to accomplish the goal of becoming a 'comic book' artist.  Funny text, humorous, well-drawn illustrations.  If only some artists I can think of were this good, how different might the fate of a certain beleaguered U.K. comic have been.  Sigh!  Too late now though.
