13 COVERS: A JIM APARO Birthday Celebration
One of the all-time greats was born 88 years ago…
A BIRTHDAY SALUTE… Keith Pollard is one of those workhorse artists who could do just about anything but never reached the upper echelons of stardom. It’s too bad because the comics industry is built on the backs of guys like this. It’s Pollard’s 76th birthday, so for this 13 COVERS salute, we bring you a run of his fab covers starring Spider-Man, from the late ’70s. Right on. — MORE — KEITH POLLARD, NEAL ADAMS and the Project That Died on the Vine. Click here. — 13 Underrated SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN Covers. Click...
A BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE… Mike Allred turns 64 today and I owe the guy a debt of thanks. Y’see, Mike was an early supporter of 13th Dimension, generous with his time, especially when it came to Batman ’66. That’s why I made sure to include him in our recent 60th anniversary poll that determined the TOP 13 BATMAN ’66 EPISODES — RANKED. So, now that it’s Mike’s birthday — and his colorist wife Laura Allred’s is Jan. 25 — I wanted to return the favor with 13 COVERS highlighting his Batman ’66 work. All the covers are pencilled and inked by Mike, and colored by Laura. (By the way, Mike cast Christopher Lee as Ra’s al Ghul below because of this evergreen. Thanks, Mike!)
