An afternoon at the gallery.
A writer named Lucien Aster has published a book entitled “Spelling Made Easy.” Inside are actual mystical incantations. Whosoever reads the incantations is transformed into a demon. Aster is holding a book signing at a mall outlet in Reno, Nevada. Rick Jones and Marlo Chandler are present.Suddenly a demon appears and begins wreaking havoc. Although nobody realizes it, the demon is actually Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner (as well as a human woman named Jill Walker). The demon instinctively dives into a fountain in order to get some water. Rick Jones throws an electric guitar into the fountain. The electric jolt shocks Namor’s essence from the demon’s consciousness, and it is forced to merge with Rick Jones’ body. The demon turns back into Jill Walker. Hulk finds the Namor possessed Jones and takes him to New York to see Doctor Strange. Strange is concerned about this new book as it is placing great mystic power into the hands of the general public.
I love Kevin Maguire, really! Well, not so much the guy (who I’ve met and who actually is a pretty nice guy) but I really do go gaga over his work.
Kevin Maguire to me will forever be associated with well drawn characters who always seem to have the most expressive and fitting facial expression of just about any artist out there. Maguire’s characters are actor’s in their own right as they can really sell a writer’s story in a way other artists can’t manage to pull off.
I first found Maguire’s art in Justice League and Justice League of the time was one of my favorite books. It was funny and exciting all at the same time and every single character in the book had their own distinctive and unique personality. Maguire is one of those guys whose work would make me buy a book.
Also, a friend of mine used to draw in the exact same style (it’s really too bad he gave up drawing).
