Combining the dynamism of jack Kirby and the realism of Neal Adams John Buscema was truly a GIANT in the industry. He could do it all. I don't think there was a Marvel character that wasn't drawn by him in the mid seventies!
I STILL have my hardcover copy of How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way that I bought when I was twelve years old. It's tattered, torned, and falling apart but I wouldn't trade it for anything. (Well, maybe for some original artwork from the big guy himself. LOL)

this guy was my hero as a kid . his work on the savage sword of conan with alfredo alcala is some of the greatest comic art i have seen .
and no one has ever come close to his silver surfer

a true craftsman who now keeps company with Frank Frazetta and Al Williamson .I like to think they are sharing a drink and comparing notes.
I never thought John Buscema got the credit he deserved but I loved his work. I discuss the lack of recognition in a review I did of a collection of Avengers comics. To see the review do a Google search for ''squidoo essential avengers.''

@goldenrulecomics Did: Cool! Loved John's return to the Avengers in the mid-80s too, WHAT a comeback; together with Stern's scripting another magical run in my book.
