Fightin’ Army No. 140 Cover by Tom Sutton
Tom Sutton was a madman with brush, pen and ink during his time at Charlton Comics. Take this cover from 1979 as an example. Is there anything more that could be added?
His energetic style was popular with publishers and audiences. He worked for Marvel, Warren and others. In the mid-80s an atypical assignment of drawing DC’s Star Trek comic is well-remembered by readers.
New colour by me.
As published.
