| ARTICLES RELATED TO Jim Steranko | | | |  Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Jim Steranko - Silver Age SterankoFuture Marvel editor-in-chief Roy Thomas, then a staff writer, recalled Steranko's arrival at Marvel:
I met Jim [in 1965]; he brought his work up to Marvel then, I think, but it wasn't considered quite pro quality yet. The next year ... he came up to the office again — I presume he had an appointment — and I sent out by Sol [Brodsky] to look at his work and basically brush him off. Stan was busy and didn't want to be bothered that day. But when I saw Jim's work, which was even better than what I'd seen the previous year, on an imp ...

| | | | Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Silver Age of Comic Books - History The beginning (as well as the end) of the Silver Age is cause for debate, but it is generally agreed that the period began with DC Comics’ Showcase #4 in 1956, which introduced the modern version of the Flash. Under editor Julius Schwartz, the Flash was the first of many old characters revised as streamlined, science fiction-influenced models. Others included Green Lantern, the Atom and Hawkman. DC also introduced The Justice League of America, an all- ...

| | | | Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Fantastic Four - Publication history Legend has it that in 1961, longtime magazine and comic book publisher Martin Goodman was playing golf with rival publisher Jack Liebowitz of DC Comics. a.k.a. National Periodical Publications. Liebowitz, according to the story, bragged about DC's success with the superhero team the Justice League of America, which had debuted in The Brave and the Bold #28 (Feb. 1960) before going on to its own hit title (premiere cover-date: Nov. 1960). Whether or not this mythic meeting actually occurred, Goodman, a publishing trend-follower aware of the JLA's strong sales, directed his comics editor, Stan Lee, to begin publi ...

| | | | Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Captain America - Character biography
In current Marvel Universe history, Steven Rogers was a scrawny American fine arts student specializing in illustration in the early 1940s before America's entry into World War II. He was disturbed by the rise of the Third Reich enough to attempt to enlist only to be rejected due to his poor constitution. By chance, a US Army officer looking for test subjects for a top secret defense research project offered Rogers an alternate way to serve his country. This project, Operation: Rebirth, consisted of developing a means to create ph ...

Graphic novel - Antecedents.
Comics have long been collected into book form, Ally Sloper having been collected as early as 1873, and there has been a long tradition of the comic annual within the United Kingdom. The United States has also had a long tradition of collecting comic strips into book form, and of producing "bumper editions". Whilst these collections and longer form comic books are not considered graphic novels even by today's standards, they show the presence of a market for such works, and thus can be thought of as part ...

| | | | Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Blade Runner - Production Philip K. Dick died before its release, yet did see a forty-minute test reel. The screenplay, by Hampton Fancher, attracted producer Michael Deeley (who secured several financing sources, later problematic when one delayed the release of the film's Special Edition) who convinced director Ridley Scott to create his first American film; Scott was unhappy with the script and had David Peoples rewrite it.
The title derives from Alan E. Nourse's novel The Bladerunner (1974), whose protagonist smuggles black-market surgical instrumen ...

(which supplied the contents of Marvel Comics #1, including the Human Torch and the Sub-Mariner) and the quirkily named Harry "A" Chesler's studio.
Its first client, made through Iger's connections at Wow!, was Editors Press Service. Joshua B. Powers, reportedly a former U.S. government agent whose beat was South America, had founded the company when he retired, and provided Latin American n ...

| | | | Jim Steranko: Encyclopedia II - Blade Runner - Production The screenplay by Hampton Fancher, which was initially titled Android, and then Dangerous Days, attracted producer Michael Deeley, who eventually convinced director Ridley Scott to create his first American film. Scott had previously passed on the project, but soon after, he bailed out of the slow production of Dune and wanted a faster project to take his mind off his brother's recent death. With Ridley onboard on February 21, 1980, the movie studios began lining up to finance the film. On April 9th, Filmways Pictures promised $13 million; but after a reques ...
