Everything you need to know about comic book storytelling is in Milt Caniff!

That Bill Overgard sure stuck to Milt Caniff's sty. Amazingly cool stuff.
   By crashryan
I'd swear Ray Bailey had some input into this. I can see Overgard in many places (e.g. his drawings of planes and "non-generic" automobiles) but so many figures, secondary character faces, and poses come right out of the Bailey style book. Other Overgard Canyon stories look more like Bill. Overgard and Bailey trading off pages? I admit I could be wrong.
