PORTFOLIO: Mike Nasser and Rick McCullum

Mike Nasser is an American comic-book penciler of Lebanese origins. Changed his name to Michael Netzer in the 1980s... He worked with Marvel, DC Comics and other publishers in the `70s, `80s and `90s, on titles such as Howard the Duck, Superboy and Detective Comics.  Here's one of his own creations from 1977: Starspawn, which was a series of 4 black and white prints, each telling a phase of the story.

Rick McCollum has been called the Kirby of the fanzine world!  His most often used inker, Bill Anderson, said McCollum’s work was “light years away from what everyone else was doing,” and that his pencils were “the best of both worlds, very tight but open to interpretation.” Here's a pin-up illo by McCollum and Anderson from 1989!
