WOW! Unless there is a coffee table book with ALL the world's great Jim Steranko art, arranged and cross referenced, youse guys is as amazing as the art is!

[stupidman]

That guess is correct! Damn!

Well, we knew Habib had to go obscure on us - some of Steranko's other covers are too obvious. I'm still waiting for the ___________ cover and the __________ cover!

(Psst - Rowand - we're not that amazing once you find the Grand Comic Database. I try to guess the cover on my own first, but if I get too frustrated, I go look at covers at The GCD. Even if I don't find it, I usually find something I've never seen before).

Once I used the GCDB and was not seen for 3 days. They had a link to a website storing all the pages of every Superman stories. (I wouild have read them all if my glasses' perscription hadn't changed while I was in their)

Steranko Trivia Question: why was it necessary to buy two copies of one of the issues of the Nick Fury run done by Jim? I think the issue number was ST 178!

Corrected: off by one error to Strange Tales 177!

[stupidman]

Hey, that's the line from X3, you swiped it, didn't you?

Hell yeah! I'm a fan of Juggy, have all his early appearances. When I first heard the X-Men III reviews I heard that quote, when he's fighting Kitty Pryde. I thought I'd steal it for myself.

[rowand]

SIGH! Loving family organizes search for missing father. He was last seen logging on to a website containing old Superman dailies. All that was found was a warm chair and a discarded pair of glasses.

[rowand]

I am reminded suddenly of Charlie Weaver's "Letters from Mama" he did to fill in the holes on the original Hollywood Squares. When asked what was on page 49 he replied, "49, Momma never did like no small letters!"

Think that Juggernaught thumbnail is big enough?

Steranko Trivia Question #2: Why did Cartoon Network ask Jaunty Jim to write the script for their JLU version of Mister Miracle? It was Jack Kirby's creation and their staff could have done their usual job on the plot.

Usual Job on the plot: to a creator an experience not unlike watching someone feed your firstborn through a shredder. Twice!

Found this on a website:

Steranko is known for his own ability to do cosmic characters and he adapts well to the New Gods setting. It is also fitting that he should write the first animated appearance of the character that he helped inspire.

Dunno how much is true, interesting if it is. Don't even know if that's the answer you are looking for, but I'm bored as hell, so it was fun trying to find the answer! :D

[SatansProdigy]

Stu got it first! I didn't even know that about Mister Miracle! Cool stuff!

[rowand]

We have a winner! During the transition between Jack Kirby doing the Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. in Strange Tales and Jim Steranko taking over the artwork on the same series they became aquainted and Jim must have impressed Jack because escape artist and part time son of every other Ghod in the New Gods heavenscape IS indeed loosely based on Jim and his then life.

First, I thought it was cool that Jack had escaped the old Marvel "you do the work and I'll take the credit" workcamp but that he then wrote and drew Jim's symbolic escape as well.

Second, I was impressed with the level of fanboyhood shown by the Cartoon Network powers that be. They don't really get thet much right!

Last, these questions must have been way too easy for you guys to get them this fast. (I'm used to a more half-fast crowd)

[rowand]

I'm assuming it to be true since I asked Jack about it once at a Sandy Eggo con back when he was trying to get Marvel to give him back his original artwork. He said that Jim had shown great passion about his magic and escape artistry and that writing about someone's passions was the sure fire path to interesting stories!

Big Badra did help.

Damn! SP, you must be living in front of your computer. I haven't had a chance to log on. I know most of the covers because I'm a big Steranko fan and have most of the comics. I guess I let work and other things get in the way.

Technically it's titled Fiction Illustrated, Volume 1, #3 — Chandler: Red Tide.

[SatansProdigy]

Hey jae

I'm a big Steranko fan too! Most of these games I suck at, but have gotten lucky with this one and the last guess the page game.

I'm a stay at home dad, due to my son (he's disabled). So when he's in school I tend to be in front of the comp most of the time selling my wares. My auctions get a lot of questions so spend a lot of time answering those. Plus, I'm getting ready to re-open my ebay store, so that's keeping me pretty busy with scanning and soon listing.

Have I bored ya enough? LOL Rambled on for a bit that time, huh? :D

[jaeldubyoo]

Most of these games I suck at, but have gotten lucky with this one and the last guess the page game.



Lucky my a$$! Don't be modest. You're pretty good at this game.

And I'm not too good at the other games either. I have participated occasionally in the other games, but if you noticed, I tend to participate in the guessing games that deal with older comics. I've only bought a handful of new comics in the last decade, so I really don't know much about modern comics. I'm an old dog, and you know what they say about old dogs. But I do know about Steranko, one of the gods in comicdom.

[habib]

Over the last month I have got to talk with Steranko at a couple events....the Windy City Pulp Con & the Motor City Comic Con.

He is a funny guy with tons of stories. Even got a picture of my wife with him! (I think he really doesn't like his picture taken with others)

He ran out of ink in his signing pen at the Pulp Con so my brother gave Steranko our marker so that he could keep signing! Then at the Motor City Con a couple weeks later my brother gave him another marker as a gag. Got a chuckle out of Steranko.

Over the years I have seen Steranko over half a dozen times and I must admit every time has been a treat!

[stupidman]

Nice rug, huh? :-)

[jaeldubyoo]

Over the years I have seen Steranko over half a dozen times and I must admit every time has been a treat!

I truly envy you. I've never had the opportunity to meet him.

[rowand]

Satan's Prodigiousness: Stay at home with a disabled kid? Gives us something in common. Mine has finally grown out of her problem long before my comic collection ran out! Thank the lord she is well at last!

P.S. It ain't bragging if you can do it. We ain't buying this LUCK idea anymore -- we know skill when we see it!

[camper49]

Yep, you can't use luck in these games.
You guys are just plain good at it.
I can't open these threads fast enough to post a guess before someone else does.

On another note, Jim Steranko and I have had some pretty awesome email chats going back and forth a few years back.
We'd both go off on a tangent until the subject at hand goes from comic books to being about how an office fire was probably caused by a neighbour's spurned lesbian affair.
I still have his email address but I haven't sent him any emails in a while.
Maybe I should ask him about that note "Steranko is interested" at the back of the current month of DC Comics.

Not only is he a legendary artist, he's a super-friendly guy to talk to.
They broke the mold for him.

[chaosus]

Here's a question,

Has Steranko ever done any work for DC?

I can't recall him doing a single DC cover or story.

[SatansProdigy]

Hey chaos! Haven't seen ya around much....what ya been up to?

And to answer your question, yes he did a couple. Superman #400 and Superman Gallery. Can't recall if he did anything else though.

It wasn't a complaint! Just cheerleading here! I'm far too slow to participate in the game and haven't felt this out of place since I sat in a plane at LAX that was delayed on my vacation in Hawaii while Pres. Clinton got his hair done by a West Hollywood stylist.

He was in Airforce one on the far side of the Airport and the Secret Service wouldn't let any aircraft fly overhead. Three hours our engines overheated and we shut down for repairs. Note: According to the FCC we had been "in the air" for the whole time since we had left the terminal with it's bar and restaurants. That the Secret Service would allow. After 9-11, who knows?

Way to go jae!

I'm home sick and didn't go to work today. Got some time to kill.

Is it just me or are the clues getting smaller and smaller? maybe it's time for new glasses.

LOL! I was waiting for this one, ever since someone said "are the clues getting smaller?" I expected Habib to post just a totally white rectangle, with nothing in it, and a clue of "think about it" or something. What would've been better than that for The Invisible Man?? :D

Jael.....just send me a PM with your mailing address and I'll get your prizes shipped out to you.

Congrats on the great game!

[SatansProdigy]

Awesome game jae! Nice going. Sweet prizes too!

[jaeldubyoo]

Wow!

Thanks, everybody! It was a fun and challenging game. Most of the time it was a matter of timing. You guys are so good that you pretty much had to be the first to see see the clues and guess right away. I must admit the Tex Dawson was the tough one for me.

Habib, the prizes are indeed sweet! Captain America 110 is one of my all-time favorite. I don't have the Steranko Prince of Darkness , and am really looking forward to it. The cover on that is exquisite. The prizes are much appreciated!

Aha! I was also wondering about this one. I have a signed copy of this comic. Kinda weird, considering Steranko usually will only sign if you tell him your name so he can personalize it.

SO, it's NOT personalized "To Stupidman, ..."

Great Win, Great books, Well played and hosted!

Thanks to all for taking the time to answer my humble queries!

[marvelguy]

Great games, guys. That Captian America book is SWEET! I wish I had that, it would compliment the other Caps. CG sent me.

Nah... I just go by "Stu" in real life, although a few people call me Mr. Pid :-)

Edit: Sorry, I realize now I wasn't clear. I bought the comic signed by Steranko from Previews, I've actually never met him. His Sig is a bit smudged so I got the book cheap!
