Rock comics by this point. Just look at the relative size of the title and the character's name on the cover. In those days, it was all about what caught your eye on the newsstand or comic rack.

In todays market there would have been a reboot and a new No.1 every second year. These were simpler times.<br /><br />Still it seemed that an ongoing Rock would have been a good seller, even in 1973.<br /><br />It is always surprising how much the new artists changed the face of DC and later Marvel. I am a big fan of Alcala, Chan and the rest of the crew. They brought a note of realism to their work which a lot of the regular artist-stable just weren't capable of. andydeckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01312309519462680892noreply@blogger.com
