Notes | Pencils: Note from Ger Apeldoorn via the error tracker:
"On my blog there is a strip from the army publication American Armed Forces
Features, which is in the same style and signed Jess Benton. This is also the
same style used in the Hector the Spector and Luke the Spook stories in
Sterling's The Informer. Jim Vandeboncoeur Jr. attributes this art to a Clem
Weisbecker, a journeyman artist who is mostly know for his work for MLJ, the
Archie company in the mid forties. So either this is by Weisbecker or all of
the Fawcett Weisbecker credits are by Benton." |
