Happy Birthday, Curt Swan!
Today is the anniversary of the birth of arguably the greatest Superman artist of all time, Mr. Curt Swan. He was born on February 17, 1920, which means he would have been 95 years old today.
Although Curt Swan is best known for his pencilling work on Superman and Action Comics, he also handled such diverse series as Aquaman, Wonder Woman, The Boy Commandos, World's Finest, and, of course, The Legion of Super-Heroes. In fact, Curt Swan drew the cover of Adventure Comics #247, which was the debut of the team. He was their regular artist from 1966-1968, drawing such important stories as Computo vs Triplicate Girl, the death of Ferro Lad, the origin and return of the Fatal Five, and the debut of Mordru.
To celebrate the greatness of Curt Swan, here are a few of his wonderful covers to Adventure Comics.
