DescriptionWallace Wood: Cannon Comic Strip #C100 Original Art (Wood and Richter, 1973). Wallace Wood proved himself one of the most talented and hard-working artists of the Silver Age. From 1970-74, Wood wrote and drew Cannon, an adventure strip designed for a newspaper distributed exclusively to military bases. Cannon is a dehumanized killer "wet-works" agent for the US government, and most of his adventures were spiced with beautiful, busty women -- usually nude for little reason at all. This adventure was created in ink and Zipatone over blue pencil, on two separate sheets of Bristol board, with a combined image area of 16.75" x 20.75". The logo is a printed paste-up.OBS! Wood cameo in the last panel. With a cigaret of course. Also, the names Reese, Hama and Wenzel sound familiar. Provenance: Nov 2022 Heritage Signature Auction. Social/Sharing |

So glad this one found a good home with you Lars!
Awesome strip with so much of what makes this series great. The cameo of Wally is a major binus indeed.
Congratulations of another fine addition to your collection.

Wood is great with linework and inking suggesting a world of adventure, intrigue, seduction, and espionage! The artform taken to new heights in atmosphere and cool.

Lovely. This piece captures all of Wally's skill and dedication. Love Wally's self-portrait that you point out in the last panel. Congratulations!
