From Who

[Electricmastro]

Betty Goodan, who is written about in Gene Autry Comics #2 (July, 1942) as having drawn all the women in the comic:

[Andrew999]

Lovely art all around - full of movement and great composition in every frame. You can tell the women were drawn by a woman from a certain part of the anatomy being normal-sized

[The Australian Panther]

Since its not made clear, the regular artist was Till Goodan and Betty Goodan was his daughter. So the art is mostly Till's but Betty did the females in the Narrative. Interesting idea.

Were they good artists? Yes, they were real Goodans!
Cheers!

[mopee167]

M. MacIntyre was born Marjorie Phyllis Hull on November 6, 1904 in Belleville, New Jersey. She was raised by her mother and her grandparents at 194 North 16th Street in East Orange, NJ. In 1926 Marjorie Phyllis Hull married David William MacIntyre. By 1930 her husband had left home and the marriage had ended unhappily in divorce. Marjorie MacIntyre raised her son as a single parent in East Orange.

In May of 1936 Marjorie MacIntyre wrote, drew, lettered, and inked two features, "Ko Ko" and "Whiskers" that appeared in The Comics Magazine, one of America's first comic books that featured original material, rather than reprinted newspaper comic strips. Her work later appeared in Funny Pages, and The Funny Picture Story Magazine. She signed her work for comic books as "M. MacIntyre" to disguise her gender in a male-dominant industry.

Marjorie Phyllis Hull MacIntyre Johnson died at the age of ninety in Illinois on July 17, 1995.

Oh, I do like this - has a light, bright and breezy feel to it

[Andrew999]

Amazingly, woman continued to write under a male pseudonym - or would abbreviate their name - in 'male' genres right up until the 1980s. Ann Rule, for example, a genius in the True Crime genre, used the name Andy Stack.

Yes, you're right, EM, that nails it - I couldn't quite place it but it's that Fleischer feel

[Andrew999]

Creates a great sense of depth through the use of extreme closeup and elevated angle - I really like her.

Not sure that Black Diamond Western #53 (Dec 1954) cover is by Terry Szenics. She was mostly an inker and  letterer. I suspect that cover is by her husband Zoltan
