Neal Adams Conan
I hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day holiday. Although for most, it’s been a 3 day weekend, I worked Saturday after a long work week and today my mind has been on all that is quickly approaching deadline in the next couple of weeks. The good news is I love what I do and the folks I work with are great. But enough about work.
Today’s post is a classic Neal Adams Conan piece from the 70’s. Back in the day, Neal was THE MAN. His work on Batman, Green Lantern / Green Arrow, The Avengers… let’s face it, ANY thing Neal Adams touched was gold. It was our loss when he left comics for advertising work. At least we can still go back and check out some of the great work he did back in the day. Which sounds like the perfect way to spend the afternoon.
Craig,
Enjoying all the art- this is another example of why Adams did some of the best Conan images. Also enjoyed the Zeck week and of course the Drawing “show” you and Beatty did online.
Raf,
Thanks for dropping by and the comments.
Adams did a great Conan. His version was more lean and muscular rather than the huge bruiser that many drew.
Zeck Week was a blast. Perhaps a Raf week is in order?
Beatty and I are having fun with the UStream videos. They’ll be more coming… with more art and stories.
Thanks again for dropping by!
Great pic, I love Neil Adams’ art and his work has a lot of impact on me illustration wise. I love the way he draws figures, especially how he puts his shadows and muscle formations without going crazy like Liefeld.
