Here's two Frank Hampson tryout dailies for MODESTY BLAISE - the first-ever MB artwork in existence (that pre-dates Jim Holdaway's published strips). Sadly, Hampson didn't land the gig, but his surviving dailies provide a tantalizing glimpse of what, "might have been" . . . 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

Here's a cover prelim of Black Panther for an Avengers cover by J.G. Jones. It was turned down by Marvel. Jones said he did not know why, he thought it was a very strong "come at me and I will kick your butt" cover. I really dig this piece thumbsup2.gif

I guess I still haven't mastered getting pictures to post with my text. My (Robert Plunkett) gallery at www.comicartfans.com link: http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryDetail.asp?GCat=255 has, in its "Legends of Genre Art" gallery the "Censored Zatanna Page by Morrow". It was supposed to be part of the Zatanna one-shot. I wrote Morrow's widow, Pocho and got a volumnous reply about how editors kept interfering with her husband's work over the years.

Oh, it could have been worse. How about this version that, rumour has it, MAD MAGAZINE turned down . . . grin.gif

I bought this unpublished prelim version of Planet Of The Apes cover from the artist (Derek Thompson) back in 2002.

Then, I got the following email from him the next month...

 

"hi david... the artwork, as of this week, is no longer 'unpublished'....it seems

dark horse printed it in the 'planet of the apes' trade paperback, along

with some other development artwork i did...thought you'd like to know!

derek"
