When I uploaded 'Anthony Fury', I commented on how the anatomy of Stan Pitt's work showed some anatomical issues - specifically, the legs were too long. In the 'Jim Atlas' story in this issue, the legs are still a bit long, but perhaps moving towards expected proportions. Compare that to his art in 'Yarmak 20', and you'll see the legs are about the length you'd expect. And then we have 'Silver Starr Super Comic 6', where Pitt is producing the great comic art he's remembered for. It's good to be able to watch an artist's skill and style maturing over a few years through the small number of samples available on this site.

John P. McCormack https:ausreprints.net/creator/1642/2/10 [Born in Melbourne, McCormack spent most of his early life in Sydney working as a newspaper and advertising artist. He contributed to Smith’s Weekly prior to the second world war. During the war, he served in Darwin during the 'blitz' before being discharged medically unfit from the army. From 1943 to 1945 he was official artist for the American Red Cross in Australia and New Guinea. He prepared a series of illustrations 'Aussies in Action' for Flight Lieutenant J.C. Murray, a member of the RNZAF. Some of these or similar features were subsequently published in a range of Frank Johnson publications. He also produced more than 1000 portrait of American servicemen, which were given to them free of charge. He painted a number of murals in servicemen's clubs. In 1945 McCormack went to the US and worked as a commercial artist in New York and Chicago. He won an Art Directors Club of New York (ADC) Annual Award several times. McCormack returned to Sydney by 1964 when he was included the Blaxland Gallery cartooning exhibition 'Fifty Years of Australian Cartooning' organised by Tony Rafty and Brodie Mack.]
