Speaking as both a collector of Aquaman and comics history, I couldn't even name Aquaman's creators until a few years ago, and I still tend only to recall the uncredited Mort Weisinger. If I don't really know who Paul Norris is, I don't expect many others do, either. How long was he on Aquaman? In the industry? Any other creations? Influences? I don't have a clue, and I think I ought to by now.Diabolu Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685199809207954223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-73797162980436424382007-11-08T20:27:00.000-05:002007-11-08T20:27:00.000-05:00why do you say unappreciated, Frank? it seems like...why do you say unappreciated, Frank? <BR/><BR/>it seems like he was mostly retired, but did know how much people liked his work--he was the subject of an issue of Alter Ego a few months ago, was a guest of honor at the SDCC in 1999, got the "created by" credit in 2003...?rob!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17556471244882205031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-4982099100399960832007-11-08T20:20:00.000-05:002007-11-08T20:20:00.000-05:00Y'know, seeing this attractive Paul Norris piece s...Y'know, seeing this attractive Paul Norris piece so near to Mart Nodell's Green Lantern, the guy really never gets his due. Being reminded this was Norris' last published Aquaman work, where Nodell's pathetic scribbles continued to be produced for DC right up to his death, makes the former's unappreciated last twenty years all the more tragic.Diabolu Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685199809207954223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-13673132839257900892007-11-08T11:56:00.000-05:002007-11-08T11:56:00.000-05:00hey hey heylove ur place!here's something YOU will...hey hey hey<BR/><BR/>love ur place!<BR/><BR/><BR/>here's something YOU will definitly love:<BR/>http://cromy.blogspot.com/Neriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04890070974323570233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-37020946352437392692007-11-08T10:50:00.000-05:002007-11-08T10:50:00.000-05:00Wow, that is cool -- in Look, and in Concept!I rem...Wow, that is cool -<BR/><BR/>- in Look, and in Concept!<BR/><BR/>I remember those years, when with an Anniversary or Special Issue, you'd see a new Supes by Shuster or Wayne Boring.<BR/><BR/>-Craig W.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-82405467671793818922007-11-08T10:24:00.000-05:002007-11-08T10:24:00.000-05:00I love these group shots!

I wondered why Aparo or Cardy or Fradon hadn't drawn Aquaman. Later on, I found out why Mr. Norris did the honors on Arthur. He did a bang up job as well!<BR/><BR/>ChrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-43928908290239497462007-11-08T06:06:00.000-05:002007-11-08T06:06:00.000-05:00That is an bsolutely beautiful piece, and I can im...That is an bsolutely beautiful piece, and I can imagine seeing it lifesize must knock you off your feet!Scurvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581506763821479702noreply@blogger.com
