The Trip of Fools-Jose Delbo-1969


For the final day of African-American history month, here's a fascinating tale of slaves and slave traders and...well...read it and see for yourself. Not what you might expect. Nice, smooth art from Jose Delbo who was all over the board at that time with often uncredited or low-profile work for various companies, all of it uniformly good!

    The inking looks like Murphy Anderson.

    It sure does. I thought that as well. But if you look close, it really doesn't have all the hallmarks of Anderson's style. GCD lists Delbo himself as inker. May be just a strong influence or perhaps some touchups.

    Is that a Marvel/DC crossover amongst the aliens' names -- "Kar-Meyen" (Carmine) and "Stahn-Li" (Stanley / Stan Lee)?
