jeff - I have been buying comics since the early '70s (Jerry Bails was my mentor) and when I saw how my comic digest was packaged I had to let you know that I am happy, and impressed to no end! Postal-gorilla-proof packing, instant shipping, spot ON grading...what more can a comic nut ask for?! Thanks to limitations on just how much I can write for your feedback I had to restrain myself a tad, and then finally had to resort to a bit of creative editing to get it in there. So, for you, and your crew, job WELL done!!! I will definitely be checking in regularly on your auction. |
Carl Barks (March 27, 1901 – August 25, 2000) was an American Disney Studio illustrator and comic book creator, who invented Duckburg and many of its inhabitants, such as Scrooge McDuck (1947), Gladstone Gander (1948), the Beagle Boys (1951), The Junior Woodchucks (1951), Gyro Gearloose (1952), Cornelius Coot (1952), Flintheart Glomgold (1956), John D. Rockerduck (1961) and Magica De Spell (1961). The quality of his scripts and drawings earned him the nicknames The Duck Man and The Good Duck Artist. Writer-artist Will Eisner called him "the Hans Christian Andersen of comic books."
In 1987, Barks was one of the three inaugural inductees of the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame.
