Golden Age greatness by one of the best of the time period. Lou Fine's work was some of the most polished and elegant found in the comic book medium. He could have gone full time in other ventures, so any example of his comics work is an event in itself.

Stunning Title Splash to a Lou Fine story featuring the Ray. Incredible art for its time that still looks terrific. Lou Fine was one of the finest artists of his time working in comics but we rarely see any of his art. Great find!
