Richard Corben (1940-2020)...by Will Eisner

Richard Corben was one of the greatest of comics creators!
Who says so?
No less a personage than Will Eisner, in the intro to the HTF Warren's The Odd Comic World of Richard Corben (1977)!
At this point, Corben had only been a published artist for seven years!
Yet the one-and-only Will Eisner penned an intro to his first "best of" compilation book.
(The fact Richard had a "best of" book after only seven years in the field is an accomplishment in itself!)
And this was about the period I first encountered, and was extremely-impressed by his work.
I've been extremely-impressed ever since.
