I sure all of us viewers already know..... But talking to these legends like Steranko is not only fandamtastic but also extremely needed. His wisdom is priceless, as well as other legends. There is one legend that does not get the attention or credit he deserves..... Butch Guice. I was his assistant for two years in the latter 90's. I doubt anyone remembers but I am Miko.
Incredible interview!! I learned so much about the legendary Steranko that I didn’t know before. This channel has long been a favorite of mine, but occasionally I do a deep dive here and I’m never disappointed.
Wow! This was truly one hell of an interview! I enjoyed watching and listening to it in its two-hour-long entirety! From his humble beginnings as a both a musician and magician to making his mark at Marvel at the tail end of the Silver Age to even collaborating with Spielberg, Lucas, and Coppola in Tinseltown, Jim Steranko is an innovator, pioneer, and--lest we all forget--an absolute LEGEND!!
I love his art i always hated that he didn't draw more comics but these companies treated artists like slaves and i hated that worse salute jim steranko revolutionary artist
Mr. Steranko you are a legend sir.i have followed and bought your work all of 50 years ago in strange tales with nick fury.those battles with baron strucker and his devil claw glove remain with me to this day.also your first few issues of nick fury.your artwork has not been matched to this day.you are a visionary sir.and im proud to have your work in my collection.thank you so much.
I was hoping he would ask him about AGENT OF SHIELD #3 (1968) where the ending of the story was literally lifted from the TV Avengers episode "Castle De'ath" which had aired in the US in 1965.
Steranko is a rare dude. I wish I could be a musician like Jim. Incidentally, one..... not two corrections; the best musicians I know personally is James "Doodle" Lyle, who is an amazing Comic artist and his wife Karin. I am always amazed at artists that are able to tap into other mediums.
I liked the idea of Fury being a former E-5 who had become an O-6. I worked for a Marine Major General when I was deployed in the Global War on Terrorism who had been an Army E-5 in Vietnam. I think that made for a good background for Fury . . . .
An absolute legend and what a personality. At his age he’s still so very lucid and engaging, almost mesmerizing. Hope he lives to 100.
He just turned 85!
To 100? To 120!!
Absolutel! Living Legend!

I first encountered Frank Robbins as the artist for THE INVADERS. Great stuff!

Always great to hear from Jim Steranko. Comics Legend and Raconteur extraordinaire!
A damn fine interview with my pal, Jim Steranko.
What an amazing, comprehensive, inspirational interview with the incomparable Jim Steranko! Thank you so much for this.

Sorry mr. Steranko i meant to call that glove strucker wore the satans claw.
Orson Welles and Steranko talking (or even drawing) might have been the greatest show on Earth.
How poor his childhood was, was a real eye opener
I was hoping he would ask him about AGENT OF SHIELD #3 (1968) where the ending of the story was literally lifted from the TV Avengers episode "Castle De'ath" which had aired in the US in 1965.
Wow! What a journey!
I do wish he had done more issues of captain America, as well as done a year or two of the ff after Kirby's departure.

Awesome adventure into Steranko’s world. What an amazing and iconic talent. Thanks 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
I understand the light sensitivity. I have always preferred working in the dark and during the
night. I get it.
God...all that imagery...it was such a huuuge part of my growing up and growing as an artist (especially early on)...
Guam is very nice this time of year. (I served with 1-294 IN (Guam ARNG) on that Deployment. Great unit!
I wonder if he was talking about Mystery in Space # 75, it was the only 25 pagers around that time, probably 1961-'62.
Bro, this is gold!
Jim Steranko mentioned my great uncle James Wong Howe at 1:47 who was the cinematographer on "Sweet Smell of Success. "
Thank you and keep up the great work !!
Very unique and smart guy

STERANKO,..MAGIC MAN,PROFESSIONAL ARTIST/NICK FURY AGENTS OF SHIELD.
I liked the way you told the story of Mt. Darwym. Thank you.
Frank Robbins, a true master of the Caniff style . . . .
really nice use of photography!
Lee Ellis's Beyond Mars was in the 1950s, wasn't it?
It was Don Heck and he had followed Jack Kirby (who had to come back after after John Severin . . . .
great
Bill Everett was another good inker for Steranko . . . .
I see Steranko was confusing Lichtenstein with Warhol (copying comic panels)....
Would you ask Steranko which Adam Strange story it was that he got the script and art or?
When did he find time to sleep?
Elizabeth Tailor was a "little Elizabeth Tailor;" she was 5'2."
Well, GE didn't stay on top, Jim . . . .
Jack Welch took care of that.
With respect Jim is not a nice person... I burned ALL of the comics I had with Jim's work I them after I met the guy
