that's a great theme ! superheroes  in 70s era, Gerry's Art style is perfect for this period. And Lindsey Wagner's a perfect muse.

Owner:

The only thing missing is the 70s tv sitcom soundtrack

Like a fine wine, Talaoc just keeps getting better with age. 

Owner:

Totally agree Marcus, and it's getting harder to find A Nino artwork  in this kind of style, which is his predominant style in the 70s.

The third word balloon.

what is Pig in 'Kano? 
"Babe"( referring to the movie ,I think)

"Kano" is a Tagalog slang term for an American man, especially a white man. It is short for "Amerikano", which comes from the Spanish word "americano". "Kano"

Back in the day when adventure comics Dominated
 the periodicals Marcus, but I'm still searching for a printed version of a kulafu Komiks,  which I think will take me more than a decade to find. That's my adventure as a Komiks collector.

So many Nino art in his Portfolio that day Steve, Hard to choose! not enough Money, I have to turn to my money-ger (wife) LOL, we both chose this Art. A memory that'll be cherished forever,
