Praise for John Buscema's Silver Surfer Artisan Edition

Praise for John Buscema:
 


  • "John Buscema’s illustrative style of art defined the Marvel look in the 1970s as Jack Kirby’s kinetic action had in the 1960s and John Byrne’s graphic shorthand would in the 1980s." —Slings & Arrows
  •  
  • "Buscema's career spanned everything from western comics to superheroes to gritty action stories, everything from the classic iconic characters to quirky books like the surreal (although critically well-received) 1994 "Archie versus the Punisher" special." —CBR
