    Gil Kane was unparalleled when it came to anatomy and dynamic poses. Looking forward to your eventual Kane/Nowlan episodes!

    I've seen this cover in a book about comics as a kid and it really disturbed me. I was not used to this level of explicit violence and the bright colours somehow made it even more unsettling.
    Love Kane's art when he was inking himself, couldn't agree more with you. Pure drawing. I think he said that he was always so obsessed with structure under construction that he never quite got to the surface stuff. Although Savage and Blackmark are pretty slick...
    Everyone who's interested in comics should read Sparring with Gil Kane, it's fantastic. You don't even have to be interested in Kane at all. The list of people he talked to is insane and they go really deep into the subject of creating comics or drawing in general.

    I bought this a month ago at my local comic store after searching for it for years.

    I picked up Savage back in the day and always wished he had done more. One of my favorite comic artists.

    Gil Kane is unique in being interested in the use of heavy text to expand the reading experience, and make it as satisfying as the pulps he read as a kid. In his interviews, he talks about the use of text in Feldstein's EC comics, as well as Charles Biro and Harold Gray. The slabs of type are almost an aesthetic value to him, regardless of the actual content. Savage is interesting because it stands midway between conventional comics and Picto-Fiction. If he'd been allowed to keep up with this and Blackmark, he might've cracked the code on comics that would penetrate into the mainstream the way Mad did by changing its shape.

    Gil Kane modeled the figure on the lower right hand of the cover on himself. Thank you for devoting an episode to Gil Kane's work.

    I lived in a small town of only 7,000 people, yet my local drugstore/newsstand got a few copies of the first edition of Savage. I was stunned by the blood and violence. The only thing that came close at the time were Creepy and Eerie. Too bad issues two and three were never distributed.

    I had the very first edition of Savage by Gil Kane which featured a beautiful cover painting of actor Lee Marvin with a scar through his eyebrow. At the time I was disappointed that this image wasn't carried through the mag. However I was a fan of Gil Kane's work.

    I found the Anything goes #1 in a discount bin in the 90’s. I had no idea there was so few pages in print.

    If you look in the right places you can find some artwork from Neal Adams that was intended for the second issue as well as Gil's proposed cover art. Dunno if Neal was to draw the entre issue or maybe it was going to be 2 stories but would have loved to see more of the character and art.

    • @ja_no

      I thought Neal Adams worked as a ghost even on the published book, didn't he? I remember Kane talking about that, but maybe I misunderstood and he was referring to an unpublished story. What I've seen from this certainly doesn't look like Adams.

      @@ja_no He's definitely in Blackmark. I never heard of Adams in Savage. It was about the same time, though.

    2:34 Wasn't Gil Kane the artist on the Amazing Spider-man's "Comic code refuses to even admit you exist!" 3 issue run where Harry Osborn becomes a junkie?
    If those comics really were aimed at kids... wow. Or do I mean "Well"? WTF, I'll go with WTF.

    Thank you this is only one channel about comics I like. You have a good taste in art. You are not hyped by some dudes superpowers or soap opera elements or sloppy drawings. I finished art univerity, so... Its hard to please me, sorry. Good you are here. Now I can learn about good stuff in comic book world.

    Kane was OK, but never my cup of tea. It really seemed like a step down when he took over Conan after Barry Smith. Kane's work was just too liney.
