Today is Joe Simon’s birthday, he is now 95 years old. My original plans were to get a picture of Joe on his birthday and post it late today. However when I talked to Joe he remarked that he had told his family he wanted nothing special to happen on his birthday; no party or unexpected visitors. So I decided that taking a picture during my visit might not be a good idea. So in substitution here is Joe with one of his creations taken at the New York Comic Con in 2005.
Please wish Joe a Happy Belated Birthday (and thanks for the wonderful comics) for me!
Surprisingly, Mr. Simon looks like he could take down that Capt. America in a fight…
