    Thoughts on Captain Action by Joe Jusko

    Great piece by artist extraordinaire Joe Jusko (the packaging artist for the last 12" revival of CA) on his love for Captain Action.

    TOYHEM! The painter of renown takes you from the Swingin’ Sixties to the modern day…

        Love A LOT of his work and was absolutely floored when he purchased my new book recently. Super nice guy.

            His pencil and ink art looks so much better than the painted style.

              He was kind of a living Captain Action if you think about it, dressing up as Captain America for the cover of Marvel Team-Up #128.

                Huh? You crazy. His line stuff is great but come on. His paintings are beyond incredible.

                  I like a lot of Jusko’s work. It sometimes looks a little flat as far as lighting and color go, but he’s certainly solid.

                  Has he ever done a fully painted mini series aside from Tomb Raider?

                    Don't tell me I'm crazy because you don't agree with me.
