It would be cool to speak to him again after all this time. Back then I was the supplier of non-distributed American rarities to the Cardiff comic readers and collectors. I had heard he was an expert in this European material.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745482563627003570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502701005570169613.post-77651378419266569462010-09-01T12:04:10.614-04:002010-09-01T12:04:10.614-04:00The person who would know the answer to this conun...The person who would know the answer to this conundrum is David Roach (co-author of the Guide to Warren magazines).<br /><br />He's just posted an article of Peng Leif's "Today's Inspiration" Blog, which is probably a good way to contact him.Peter Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15566601617123798061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502701005570169613.post-81063239381605670502010-09-01T05:51:20.314-04:002010-09-01T05:51:20.314-04:00Jacque: Thanks! Yes it does remind me of Demetrio ...Jacque: Thanks! Yes it does remind me of Demetrio also, but I think it is someone else from the 'Catalan' school. The way the hair is drawn is very like Demetrio, but again the artists from Spain tend to draw in that style. Months ago I had a comment from an expert on Catalan romance art and he posted a bunch of links to some great examples. He also revealed my assumption that Demetrio was influenced by Steranko to be rather false. Here's the link back to that post:<br /><br />http://kb-outofthisworld.blogspot.com/2009/11/demetrio-romance-stories-teen.html#comments<br /><br />Some of this art is of really quite astonishing quality, and amongst the British romance comics I think it stands out above the rest.<br /><br />Michael: Thanks for that suggestion. I'll do a bit of follow up work and see if I can confirm that it is Maroto. The style has a certain familiarity to me that I'm sure I've seen it in America - the way this artist draws the girl's face from the side, especially her nose and lips, is quite distinct.<br /><br />Mickey: It is superb, isn't it! I'm looking forward to finding a few more nice examples like this while I'm over here in Europe. I picked up a sweet Italian comic yesterday with war, western, and romance all in the same thick book. Some cool art in there as well. I'll be posting stories from that as soon as I can get it scanned.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745482563627003570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502701005570169613.post-72909371155956223712010-08-30T22:06:38.245-04:002010-08-30T22:06:38.245-04:00Welcome back, KB!
