A New Cover Posted Every Day! Join the Facebook Fan Page at: www.facebook.com/SuperTeamFamilyTheLostIssues
I have mentioned before on this blog that my favorite cover artists for Marvel and DC are Gil Kane and Nick Cardy, respectively. If you were to ask me who my favorite cover artist for non-Marvel and DC titles, it would have to be Will Eisner. His cover scenes were filled with mood, action and great character design. Plus, his utilization of text and logos as part of the art always made them special.

Lovely cover - and smart dialogue.
Savage Hawkman may be puzzled - but he's sure to admire the Spirit's...er, spirit.
Your logic is indisputable, Ross. Hence, the Eisner Award(s) being named in his honor! I can't help wondering, though, what would be the back-story to this cover art. For instance; is somebody in Central City trying to reorganize the Land-Air-and-Sea Gang (from that Silver Age Flash story "The One-Man Justice League")?
That would be FLASH (v.2) #158 from circa Sept. 1966.
People say that The Spirit was ahead of its time, but that reality is comics are still trying to catch up to what Eisner did.
Although, DC gave it a pretty good shot with their "America's Best Comics" imprint. The one with Tom Strong and Cobweb, etc?
Have you ever teamed up the Spirit with Tintin?
If it helps, you could have Brenda Starr introduce the two of them. After all, she's Tintin's fellow Newshound and the Spirit's fellow Central City-zen! In any case, I can't wait to see what you have planned for STF #4600. Just four more days!
Smith's Hawkman looks to be the JSA's version. He blends well with Colt. You can feel the wind in their location. What an idea for an animated movie!!
How about another Tintin-on-the-Moon cover? Maybe guest-starring Hawkman (using the same image from STF #3753).
