kenneth g - My wife and I felt the need to express our deep appreciation for the service we have received both in mail order and in person at conventions these past six years in doing business with you ! You have been very fair in pricing the art and even cutting your prices lower for the sale . I have tried to deal the OTHER DEALERS with really overblown prices for their art, but you and your staff have held your Integrity all these years and made collecting original art affordable to the working class . Both Diana and I thank you and your staff ! Looking forward to doing business with you many more years to come ! Kenneth & Diana G. |
Eli[1] Katz (April 6, 1926, Riga, Latvia – January 31, 2000, Miami, Florida, United States) who worked under the name Gil Kane and in one instance Scott Edward, was a comic book artist whose career spanned the 1940s to 1990s and every major comics company and character.
Kane co-created the modern-day versions of the superheroes Green Lantern and the Atom for DC Comics, and co-created Iron Fist with Roy Thomas for Marvel Comics. He was involved in such major storylines as that of The Amazing Spider-Man #96–98 (May–July 1971), which, at the behest of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, bucked the then-prevalent Comics Code Authority to depict drug abuse, and ultimately spurred an update of the Code. Kane additionally pioneered an early graphic novel prototype, His Name is...Savage, in 1968, and a seminal graphic novel, Blackmark, in 1971.
In 1997, he was inducted into both the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame and the Harvey Award Jack Kirby Hall of Fame.
