George Roussos worked in comics for an astonishing 50 years,beginning in 1939. In the Golden Age he created “Airwave”, a character in Batman’s Detective Comics. And in the Marvel Silver Age, under the pseudonym "George Bell", he’s known for inking Kirby’s iconic Avengers #4 cover and early Fantastic Four issues. In between, paying the bills in the early years, he drew a series of promotional comics called “Adventures in Science” for General Electric.
