Description

I was only a little kid (7.5 years — I checked) when I first discovered Jim Steranko in Strange Tales #159. (In fairness, I might have discovered him an issue or two sooner, but it’s Captain America’s appearance on the cover that stands out in my mind’s eye.)

This is right around the time that Jim became STERANKO — no first name or other reference required. In subsequent issues of Strange Tales, and then his short-lived legendary run on the solo Nick Fury series, I most definitely didn’t always understand what he was doing, but I knew it was dynamic, wild and special. Looking back at the material today, it remains so.

Jim holds on to most of his published artwork, so a cool specialty piece like this one is a rare opportunity to have something of Jim’s in a collection. And when — and if — that published art ever comes on the market, there is so little of it, and it will be in such high demand, that affordability is going to be a challenge.

A big one.

Looks great with the reverse negative style used here by Steranko that takes up more of his creativty and effort to produce. His signature character is given even more grit and determination being shown this way.

I love these pieces where the artist has to think about approaching the drawing in reverse. Great contrast!

The signature anchors the bold chiaroscuro nicely! It's not personalized (as he is notorious for doing), which has me wondering if it's a commission or an illustration for the Steranko Noir book of the like. Congrats!

The effect works very well, but, it's Steranko, so of course it does.
