A comic book artist whose work was revolutionary in several ways. He created the "Joe Dope" series in comic-book motif that instructed soldiers how to care for their equipment, was the first comic illustrator to use balloon panels that were asides in that they showed what the character was feeling and thinking rather than saying, and incorporated subjects that heretofore had been unthinkable to include in "comic" books---topics such as domestic abuse, urban ugliness and thieving politicians. (showing 500 of 1303 characters). |
