Shanghaied
Notes: Interestingly, this story is clearly signed Nyron Fass with an N. Was that another spelling of his name, or did the inker just misunderstand the name over the telephone? - Ger A. |

The String Puller!
Notes: This is the odd one here. A four page story about a corrupt small town judge and the rookie cop who exposes him, drawn in a style unlike anything I have seen at Timely. Some of the characters are almost caricatures, especially the ones in the splash panel. The inking is a hurried version og the thick and thin inkbrush style in the Milton Caniff school. It has touches of the artist of DC's The Star Spangled Kid, which seems to be Hal Sherman. The hastily done brushwork is remeniscent of Howard Post's later work. But the total gives me a strong iompression of the combination of John Severin and Harvey Kurtzman. Severin vfor the straighfaced characters with the typically drawn long noses and Kurtzman for the brushwork and some of the expressions. I know from John Benson's reearch that Severin and Kurtzman tried doing some sort of commercial booklet for one of the Goodman brothers and they did team up on Prize Comics Western, so it is possible. But maybe someone recognizes this as something totally different? - Ger A. |
