According to one writer who worked for Prize comics when Joe Simon and Jack Kirby edited them, you came in with a story and they talked it through with you, adding stuff, angles ideas all the time. Not just Jack's stories, but all of them.Ger Apeldoornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633862833036214748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25254614.post-81507160587062442462009-06-13T13:49:09.100-07:002009-06-13T13:49:09.100-07:00The more early Roussos work you present, the more ...The more early Roussos work you present, the more my respect for him grows. It makes me wonder all the more why his ink work on the early Marvel heroes was so slapdash.<br /><br />The sexual politics in these romance comics is fascinating, especially the first one. I prefer the writing in the Prize romances because they had more complex stories than Standard, DC, and the others. Maybe Prize authors, having created the genre, hadn't had time to develop all the cliches yet. Some Prize romances I have are action or crime stories with romance angles rather than focused path-of-a-heartbreak stories like DC favored.<br /><br />Meskin wasn't much into cars, was he? Not quite as generic as Steve Ditko cars, though. Guess when you do such a good job with people and backgrounds you can afford to slough off on researching autos.Smurfswackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11807173070389349098noreply@blogger.com
