Dynamo No. 3 Cover by Wally Wood

June 25, 2021|In Comics, General

Tower Comics was a short-lived American comic book publisher that was an imprint of Tower Books. Wally Wood’s T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents was the forefront super-hero property.

Other great artists like Gil Kane, Dan Adkins, and Steve Ditko contributed to the high-quality of Tower’s books, and for a company that came and went relatively quickly their reputation endures.

And here we have a fine example of the superb draughtsmanship of Wood, making him easily one of the top ten American comic book artists of all time. New colour and packaging by me.
