Nick Cardy is an underrated talent...
Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!
Nick Cardy is just plain awesome. For sheer illustrative talent in comics, he's hard to beat. And his women rival John Romita's for most beautiful.

isn't The Spook the one that Damian beheaded?
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.

Finally got the chance to meet him a few years back. One of my all time favorite artists. One of my Original Art goals is to get a Cardy page. Here's one I passed on because of a tight budget at the time:
Nick Cardy Original Art, Aquaman #23 pg. 7 | eBay
A great price for an original Cardy page. I'm looking for a Titans page before I even think of an Aquaman page.
BTW, if you haven't gotten either "Art of Nick Cardy" books...get them. Well worth it. He's done a lot of other work besides Comic Book work that will be recognizable. A lot og movie poster art. Don't know if he is still doing comic shows...but if he is, definitely get in line to meet him. One of THE nicest and genuine artists out there.
"When not too many people can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears,
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Isn't it a pity".
