Four of these have figures that so closely match work by Joe Simon as to leave no doubt that they were used as sources for swiping. I include one here because it is such a good example of Joe&#8217;s working method. For the cover of Blue Bolt #3 Joe made significant changes but we shall see later that he used this same figure again this time with only a little modification.<\/p>\n<p>Please excuse the odd coloring on this image. Stan remarked to me about the similarity of the holster but his scan was a little dark for me to see it. So I did some Photoshop adjustments to make it clearer. But these adjustments brought out artifacts of the jpeg compression used. The original does not have all the odd rectangular color areas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/kirbymuseum.org\/blogs\/simonandkirby\/archives\/261\">Art by Joe Simon, Chapter 4, Transition<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/kirbymuseum.org\/blogs\/simonandkirby\/archives\/278\">Art by Joe Simon, Chapter 5, Side by Side<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flash Gordon (7\/3\/38) by Alex Raymond Stan Taylor has sent me some scans of panels from Flash Gordon done by Alex Raymond.
