Clint & Mac – 2

- The other shoe drops. A while back I posted the first half of the comic book, Clint & Mac, which was illustrated by Alex Toth from a Disney live-action feature. The book was sent to me by Bill Peckmann, and we’ve just put together the second half, for your amusement. The art’s all first rate, and the story adaptation isn’t that bad either.

Here’s a note Bill sent me with the scans:

    This book has been a real pleasant discovery and surprise. I’ve got to confess because of its innocuous title, it’s always been on the bottom of my pile and until recently hasn’t got the kudos it deserves. I know for me it was seeing the recent publication of Manuel Auad‘s very fine Robert Fawcett: The Illustrator’s Illustrator that made me realize just how much of a Fawcett fan Alex was and it really shows in his “Clint & Mac”.

Here’s the rest of the story, starting where we left off with pag. 19:

Here’s an additional treat: it’s the original art of the “All American Western” cover, #107, 1949. Dean Mullaney had printed this art in the book Genius Isolated which he co-authored with Bruce Canwell. They were kind enough to send it to Bill for posting here.

Here’s the color cover as it appears in the Magazine.

Many thanks to Bill Peckmann for arranging and passing along this rare bit of comic art.

    Incredible!!! The story is so-so, not bad but simply okay. Toth’s incredible artwork is what saves this. I wish Disney or some publisher would come out with a compilation of Toth’s film adaptations for Dell Comics. I would pay for it just for the art alone. Thank you for posting this.
