R.I.P-Dan Adkins


J. David Spurlock of the Wood Estate is reporting the passing last week of artist Dan Adkins. I have always felt that Adkins was the most symbiotic of Wood's collaborators. Their work together in the sixties produced, amongst other things,  T.H.U.N.D.E.R. AGENTS, TOTAL WAR and WITZEND. Dan went on to a prolific career as an illustrator himself with much good work at Marvel in the sixties and a long career as an inker in the seventies and beyond. Here are some of my favorite pieces by Dan Adkins, solo.
