Your article also works as a great survey of his career in comics, something I had never before gotten a handle on. And may I just get on my soapbox here and say that it's high time John Stanley got some recognition as an ARTIST and not just a writer. I've always thought his simple, pure style was genius work and something to aspire to. <br /><br />I wholly applaud Drawn and Quarterly's "John Stanley Library," but was blown away that John Stanley didn't get ANY credit in the Melvin Monster book for having drawn the story. The bio in that book just says he was a writer! <br /><br />I'm really enjoying your "John Stanley's World" articles, Frank! More, please!Paul C.Tumeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398929835829679477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157513690234917810.post-59276138746156021822009-12-11T13:53:53.135-08:002009-12-11T13:53:53.135-08:00Great work, Frank--an amazing and informative read...Great work, Frank--an amazing and informative read. Do you know when Stanley stopped doing covers for Lulu? I'm seeing a lot of Lulu covers shown alongside Tripp memorials, and I keep wondering if he did any of the brushy ones.--Chris DuffuyDuffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980597556389831990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157513690234917810.post-41505422743028092702009-12-10T17:50:11.565-08:002009-12-10T17:50:11.565-08:00Hee, hee! First!
This is an incredible post, Fran...Hee, hee! First!<br /><br />This is an incredible post, Frank. Thanks so much for all the hard work. It was really sweet to see Stanley's rough story sketch for Nancy. It's so complete. There's not much there for the artist to interpret. I wonder if he worked that complete with everyone he worked with.<br /><br />Looking back on the Dunc 'n' Loo stuff you've posted, I have to say I'm a huge fan of Bill Williams artwork. He was a fantastic artist.Trade Loefflerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14063262326474120857noreply@blogger.com
