I’m a fan of the work of Sheldon Mayer. Though not all that well known today, Sheldon is the man who pulled Superman from a stack of submittals and got him placed in Action #1. He went on to be involved in the creation and editing of much of the All-American Comics (later DC) line-up including Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, and the Justice Society of America. He is generally considered to be one of the best Editors DC ever had; he had the gift of storytelling and he had the ability to teach others how to do it in a medium that was new and different.
When he stepped down as an editor, he continued as a writer and artist on a variety of DC humor books including Sugar and Spike. He worked on S&S until his eyesight failed ending the series with issue 98. Later, he received cataract surgery and with restored vision resumed working. He produced new S&S stories for the overseas market. Many of those stories have never been reprinted in the US. He also contributed to mainline DC line by creating The Black Orchid.
This gallery contains my collection of artwork created by Sheldon Mayer and artifacts created from his artwork.
There are 13 Pieces of Art In This Gallery.
