20,000 Leagues Under the Sea - delicate piece depicting a classic piece of literature by Jules Verne. It evokes a period style in its rendering that fits the subject perfectly.
These vintage comic strips were often cut up and sent to readers who would write in. Sounds horrible right? Destroying an original? Well its better than throwing the artwork into the trash which was the norm at most publishers. This one is by Camillo Zuffi. For the rest of the art, I’ll let it speak for itself— go over to Comicartfans.com to see more deets.
I don’t like wrestling at all— in fact I kind of despise it— but I like Daniel Warren Johnson’s work a whole lot and this page has so much energy it’s great.

Those are my picks for this week.
