    Kids getting an original Bernie Wrightson...goodness knows where it ended up...criminal behavior to be keeping it...comic strip syndicates did the same until the early 80's...unbelievable..

    Love Bernie! So curious to see his demeanor here as opposed to the Frankenstein interview when he was young. The mask that we all wear will be lowered as we age and get wiser. His artwork on Frankenstein is a never ending inspiration and fascination for me. RIP

    R.I.P. Bernie Wrightson. Along with the late Neal Adams and the late George Perez, he was undoubtedly one of the architects of the Bronze Age. May all.of three of them continue to rest in peace.

    Brilliant work. I became a Wrightson fan in the 60s. Such a tragedy that early work was given away, stolen or burned. I saw pain in Bernie's face as he reflected back. Sad that he's gone. really.

      Damn shame, ain't it? It's a low down dirty crying shame DC and Marvel both gave away original comic art (measuring 11" x 17" at that time) to clueless schoolchildren as souvenirs during the fifties, sixties, and seventies...it breaks my heart to see classic, priceless artwork from industry legends such as Wrightson, Adams, Kirby, Ditko, Kubert, Buscema, Romita, Toth, Steranko, Perez, Byrne, Simonson, Gil Kane, Jim Aparo, Curt Swan, and Marshall Rogers end up plastered on bedroom walls unframed like pinups.

    Detective Comics 425. One of the best covers ever.

      I couldn't agree with you more, bro! And Wrightson's inks over Neal Adams' pencils on the covers of both Batman #241 (cover-dated May 1972) and Limited Collector's Edition #C-59 (cover-dated July 1978) aren't half bad, either! May they both continue to rest in peace!

    Such a shame that a lot of artists back then didn’t value there work and fight to keep it, also Bernie always priced his stuff low so he ended up destitute when he passed away

    What happened to the audio about 10 minutes in?

    Wrightson looks a little like a slightly older Travis Bickle from certain angles

      I always thought he resembled a gloomier Tommy Lee Jones.

      @demetriusdillard2863 10 місяців тому +1

      Absolutely. Wrightson was always an intricate draftsman, particularly on his Swamp Thing issues and, of course, his Frankenstein artwork. May he continue to rest in peace.
