Description

CLICK HERE FOR AUCTION LISTING!

10.75x16" artboard features original art by Curt Swan (1920-1996), best known as the artist most associated w/Superman titles during the period fans and historians call the Silver Age of comic books. Swan produced hundreds of covers and stories from the 1950s through the 1980s. Offered here is the original art for page 8 of Superman #268, published by DC Comics in Oct. 1973. Art was inked by Bob Oksner (1916-2007). Six panel page is from "Wild Week-End In Washington" story by Elliot Maggin and shows continuation of Clark Kent kidnapping, w/Kent faking unconsciousness after being interrogated by the Senator he met earlier that night. While "unconscious," Kent thinks over what he knows about the Maze spy-ring before last panel shows Kent using his x-ray vision to view chaos of armed guards (one of whom looks suspiciously like Lex Luthor) reacting to someone breaking into their headquarters (that someone being Batgirl). Kent appears in all but one panel. Swan has signed last panel in black ink. Top margin has title inkstamp and inked issue/page numbers as well as publication month. First and fourth panels have text strip replacements w/tape on back of artboard. Back has DC copyright inkstamp. Thin strips of tape at left/right and bottom margins, w/strip of faint staining to top margin. Art remains clean and Exc.
