I posted this under Lew's Blog heading as Toth was mentioned there:-
Re. Alex Toth, and I realise this is off-topic and I'll post this on World comics also, those who might have only seen the master's work on Zorro, or haven't seen it period might want a look at this, Bravo for Adventure, which is about as good as it gets in comics, imo. Quite, quite wonderful:-

Mind you, as I think of this, there are a number of comics illustrators/creators/ storytellers who reach these levels and my list would include Hugo Pratt, Joe Kubert, Sydney Jordan, Kinstler, Alex Raymond, among others. But Toth's work can be sublime. Curious to read other suggestions and thoughts.
