Jack Davis has died. Last of the EC artists.

Post by stevezodiac »

Jack was 91. His style was great in horror comics and Mad type humour. No EC comic was complete without one of his stories. I think one of the war comics like Frontline Combat featured him throughout. American Civil War issue the titles were of three famous battles like Gettysburg, Chattanooga etc.

I think Marie Severin is still around - though admittedly she didn't draw any stories during her time at EC.

I always loved his stuff. He clearly had a very broad range that he worked in, too, given the obits.
