I thought of him contributing to the monster books instead of Don Heck, for instance...or drawing Iron Man. Speculation is free, and you can let your imagination go wild.<br /><br />As it is, Joe Maneely's work is enclosed in a time capsule of the early to mid-1950s. There's nothing wrong with that, but when you consider how other artists of that era, Ditko, Romita, Buscema (the list goes on) made their marks in the modern market, it just becomes a natural question to ask how Maneely would have fit in.<br /><br />Personally, I think he would have adapted and done very well.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-57495620225676269792012-02-17T12:35:26.911-08:002012-02-17T12:35:26.911-08:00Had Maneely not died at such a young age, right at...Had Maneely not died at such a young age, right at the dawn of the "Silver Age", he could have conceivably been drawing comics right into the 20th century, maybe even right up to 2012. He didn't, and the Silver Age, and whatever ages came after that, are poorer for it.Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02155991693956178030noreply@blogger.com
