I liked his Warren work. I wouldn't want to look at it all the time, but it was dramatic and so distinctive I could spot it from across the room.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-46714174148453739522011-04-22T22:44:35.982-07:002011-04-22T22:44:35.982-07:00It's no surprise that Grandenetti here looks l...It's no surprise that Grandenetti here looks like Eisner, since as you said he worked for Eisner and ghosted for Eisner on countless SPIRIT's...who knows how many 'classic' SPIRIT stories were in fact all Grandenetti and not Eisner at all? Who influenced who? Indeed?<br /><br />I love this old style Eisner-esque Grandenetti. When he was doing all the 60's horror for Warren he was too loose and nightmarish for my sensibilities, like primal scream art, very visceral. He is a veritable artistic genius nonetheless.<br /><br />T'anks, Pap!THE APOCOLYTEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835797417138325832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-59798642773625038212011-04-21T09:52:58.997-07:002011-04-21T09:52:58.997-07:00Charles, as to whether the writer of Goonies read ...Charles, as to whether the writer of <i>Goonies</i> read this I don't know, but the movie/comics connection is always close, so all I can say is, "could be!"Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-14914420023536695862011-04-21T04:28:08.316-07:002011-04-21T04:28:08.316-07:00Wow!
