Here's Murphy Anderson's classic cover for The Brave and Bold #61 (1965) starring Black Canary and Starman. You know, this particular image of Black Canary reminds me of another sensationally sinuous femme fatale...
Yes, none other than the original Love Goddess herself: Rita Hayworth! This famous publicity still is from Cover Girl, one of lovely Rita's biggest hits.
So the question remains: is Starman Kelly or Astaire? ;)

Hi oort,
Thank you for the kind words! As for the lack of posts, it's mostly due to a lack of time. But I hope to post more entries this summer,starting in the next few weeks.
Thanks again, I'm glad you stopped by :)
Wow! that comparison is great! Loved murphy's run on these two books and Dr. Fate with hourman!
Hi doc noc,
Thanks for stopping by and for the feedback. And yes, you are spot on Anderson's Dr. Fate/Hourman Showcase. His work is just great, isn't it? The way he conveys texture--metal, hair, etc.--I've always found it pretty amazing.
