Panels 2

- For a whilie Bill Peckmann was the Associate Editor, with John Benson editing, of a magazine called PANELS. Needless to say this was dedicated to comic strip and animation art. Here from Vol 2 of the magazine is an article by Alex Toth on Jesse Marsh.


This was the cover of that second issue.


This is the contents page.
(I’d love to see the Carl Barks article.)

    It must be Jesse Marsh week. Comics Comics just reprinted an article by cartoonist Russ Manning about Marsh. http://comicscomicsmag.com/2010/04/johnny-mack-brown.html

    By odd coincidence I was just looking at my copy a day ago. I’m glad to see that article on Jesse Marsh up on the web. It was the main reason I bought mine years ago. It takes awhile to really appreciate Marsh but once done, the rewards are there.

    It is always interesting and informative to read when one artist writes about another.

    I’m not an animator but I love this blog.

    Dear Ann, Please keep on researching your granduncle, he was one of the great, special talents in the world of comic art. You have a family member to be proud of. We are fortunate that all of his Dell Tarzan comic book stories are being reprinted. (See Amazon .com)

    Hello all, I wanted to share that I am a Long Beach historian researching artist who worked for the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Federal Arts Project (FAP). Jesse Marsh is credited with assisting on a Suzanne Miller mural for Jane Addams School in Long Beach. “A Visit to the Jungle.” You can find photographs of it online. If anyone has additional information on Marsh’s work during the mid-1930s, please contact me. Thank you.
