I well remember the thrill of tracking down those few issues of Nick Fury. The good news is that they're due to re-appear in a Marvel Masterwork edition, pretty well exclusively devoted to Steranko's Nick Fury/ Strange Tales output. They've already done a cracking job on reprinting his Captain America stories with beautifully sharp artwork and colours as they originally appeared in an earlier Masterwork volume .<br /><br />I'm feeling tempted to put some more of his stuff up ...Peter Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15566601617123798061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816075755902555378.post-46132338462848014582009-11-29T13:18:41.620+00:002009-11-29T13:18:41.620+00:00Peter, you certainly do some fascinating posts! St...Peter, you certainly do some fascinating posts! Steranko was one of the big influences on me age 11 or so. It was his work on S.H.I.E.L.D. that started to make me think of comic art as akin to cinema. <br /><br />A few years back, while driving past Tintern Abbey, I saw a great secondhand bookshop. (Worth the trip if it's still there - oh, and the abbey looks nice too.) In among the canyons of old books was one of those classic Silver Age issues of Nick Fury. Figuring that it is better to pass these cherished sources on than to hoard them, I somehow managed to make myself give the comic to Leo's daughter Freya. She has turned into a natural storyboarder and comic storyteller. I don't know if Steranko's work in particular had any influence on that, but I'd like to think so.<br /><br />Page 19 looking great btw!Dave Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468228790874490693noreply@blogger.com
