Carmine Infantino (May 24, 1925–April 4, 2013)

Licensing art original by Infantino and Murphy Anderson
The man who visually-redefined DC Comics in the Silver Age, first as an artist, then as art director, finally as publisher, has passed away.
(Mind you, that's just the tip of the iceberg in terms of his work, but it's the most prominent aspect, and the one that Baby Boomers like myself will talk about.)

Kool New Blog: Comic Twart

There's a very kool blog I'd like to point out to all comics fans...Comic Twart!
The concept is an artists' jam (both pros and very talented amateurs who could turn pro) with a different character or series each week! (Among them is Francesco Francavilla of Zorro and, soon, Green Hornet, fame!)
So far they've done spectacular jams on Zorro and The Rocketeer.
(both pulp/Golden Age comic/retro-themed subjects! Our favorite!)
Who knows what they'll do next?
I'll be watching!
Will you?
