Victory Imagined
Shane Foley submits to the blog and writes: “At one stage some years back, I bought Steve Engelhart’s unused Topps Capt Victory scripts. I liked the way they seemed to capture the Kirby spirit without just recycling his themes. So I drew up some pages. Here is page 1, coloured by Randy Sargent (And I always thought Cap should have a battle helmet so I gave him the one I’d designed years earlier when a group of us on the old Kirby Chat List began a Capt Victory jam)”.
