Wow! This is the most Jim Sherman art I've ever had the privilege to see! What a terrific design sense and aptitude for creating interesting layouts he has!

Thanks, Rhino!

Still "Lardy" to my friends!

I've always loved this guy's art without ever really knowing his name. I'll admit that I wasn't always that cognizant of creators until I was in my late teens or early 20's. and this run I was probably 8-12 years old.

All you need is Love (and a whole big bucket of Money).

Somehow, a couple of these issues made their way out of my stash in the years since they came out. I've been (for over half a decade now) waiting to read them again in archive form.

I really wish the next archive would get released- it would contain at least some of this work, I believe.

I never read most of these issues, but they look fantastic!

Agreed about the next archive!

I'm still fortunate enough to have all these issues in my collection. You couldn't pay me enough money to part with them.

Beauty's where you find it. Not just where you bump and grind it.

Me either, Jerry.

Question: I do NOT recognize the Sherman/Abel Santa & Soldiers' pic... is that from a story I have missed...?!?!?!?!

I think it is incredible that Sherman's art even retains much of it's Sherman 'zing' under the heavyhanded inking of Abel, who tended to... well, alter ALL of any artists' pencils that he inked into a distinctly Abel look. Not even he could entirely eradicate Sherman's style.

Also telling: 14 issues he worked on (not couting the tabloid's SECRETS section)?

Like Cockrum, he made a huge impression in a fairly short run.

The santa & soldiers pic is the Legion vs the Toyman from the 1978 DC calendar.

I agree. Bob Mcleod was the best inker for him.
Their work together looks nearly three dimensional!
