POST #71 - WALLY WOOD - GALAXY Magazine Artwork

 WALLY WOOD
GALAXY Magazine Illustrations 1959-68


























Pretty amazing work!
Wallace Wood was one of COMICS most incredible artists.
These illustrations prove that Wood was more than a 'comic book artist',
and was able to vary his style to suit the needs of the presentation.
Wood's pulp work here rivals the best of Finley, Freas, or any other illustrator.

Post # 69 - "SQUISH THING" artwork by Berni Wrightson






Greetings and salutations,
art lover!

I am
THE APOCOLYTE!








Penultimate 70's HORROR artiste extraordinaire Berni Wrightson parodies his own most famous creation, the SWAMP THING, for The Simpson's comic book "TREEHOUSE OF HORROR" # 11 (Oct. 2005).
This is the black and white artwork.
Even sans dialogue balloons, Wrightson's artwork carries the story 
(Incidentally, the story is, of course, by Len Wein, the writer and co-creator of the 
original SWAMP THING).

"SQUISH THING"

.

















The actual comic was a "flip" book with two covers,
each parodying classic EC Comics horror artwork...

Bonus artwork - 

Berni Wrightson's version of the cover art 
(parody of DC's HOUSE OF SECRETS #92)





...and the unforgettable original HOUSE OF SECRETS #92 cover art...




To view the original SWAMP THING story,

Until next time, traveler...

See you soon...!
