Description
Here is something fun and also apropos for the Remembrance Day. Art done for publication in the Military press by golden age giant Gil Fox. I saw a number of these on Heritage and liked them but held off until the right one came up and here it is. It reminds me a little of the Male Call I have by Caniff. Since these never saw civilian publication they could be a bit more racy in themes and content. There were a lot of artists who contributed comic strips like this and it the number of existing original is quite scarce which makes me wonder what happened to them all. More than likely they were all destroyed or thrown out but I like to think they are all sitting in a few crates in some warehouse somewhere and one day will be discovered.

Showcase of beauties!  The rest of them are marked as top secret so our enemies won't get a hold of them.  Good thing Canada is on the allies list.

 What a Beautiful panel, I have seen many from G.Fox but this one surpasses them all, and I find wonderful his classic stroke to do the shadows of the hair, and the sinuous and sensuous feminine lines of that era, really wonderful. I also still remember his very interesting interview with Wil Eisner published in a book, talking about his equally brilliant colleague Lou Fine.
