Daredevil VS Sub Mariner by Wally Wood



Image
Never really thought about it til now, but I only have 2 trad'n cards by Wally- this, and The Spirit.  Weird, cause onea my major geek-outs at the end of last century was trad'n cards, probly a three-way tie with Steranko, Wrightson, and Jack Kirby.  Anyhoo, search Daredevil #7 on here to see how fundundant this image was in the wayback

Yeah, yeah, just new to me.  They were nestled in a book at the library for twenty years (who knew?).  I call em Fantasy Foodtruck Flat and Griffin Meets Bigfoot

 

Geni Pants by Steve Ditko

Forget that the young Geni in the original ends up as grizzled as the Cap'n, but his blue pants turned red!  Reminds me of the diddy Don't It Make My Blue Eyes Red?  Allergies, maybe

Image
Image
Image
Yeah, yeah, just new to me, and just the first three.  Teenage Berni art is just the cat's meow, I feel, and I was so pumped to see them.  If you know of more from 1966/1967 or thereabouts, please holla

Dig'n Me Some Steve Ditko

Image
This is so spot on for me.  Years ago I was dig'n holes for fence posts, when I hit a massive rock.  As I worked to dig it out, I discovered it was a boulder (makes sense, as I was dig'n in Boulder).  When my hole got to be about this size, I decided to cut a post shorter so it looked like it was as deep as the other posts
