I knew that Al Plastino had passed away semi-recently, but I also appreciate that you provided the link to the New York Times item on his death. Hope you stop by regularly! – greg

The Perry White-hiring Clark Kent reprint sounds more interesting, in its way, doesn’t it. And Al Plastino, who died just three years ago, is a fascinating story, I’ve discovered. Especially his Superman- meets- President Kennedy issue, and how it was delayed because of the assassination. And what ultimately happened to the art he thought had been donated, all along. And its ultimate redemption, after his death.
And if Prince Namor’s daughter had married Nador, then they divorced, and she married…say, Bobby Orr. She’d be Namor-Nador-Orr.
Just saying
Cheers
