The Return Of Dave Cockrum's Doc Savage!


Here again are Doc Savage comic strips drawn by the late great Dave Cockrum with scripts by Dave Hannerfield. Many of these strips are in the possession of Terry Allen who has graciously allowed me to repost them here. Hopefully not only the great artistry of Cockrum is evident, but the story as well is developed nicely in the few examples we have. The pencil work is especially neat to my eye, having a vivid texture to it. These are beauts.
