I love how so very many of the comic legends have New York accents. That is a New York accent I hope? 😮 He’s awesome either way.

Just read Savage Sword of Conan #34 this Sunday AM. Infantino w/ Alfredo Alcala on finishes. Surprisingly effective pairing that fit right in w/ 70’s Buscema.

As a kid in the '70s, I didn't like Carmine Infantino's artwork at Marvel. Later I learned he was a great editor and cover artist for DC Comics. A legendary artist, in fact. I do like his '60s art. Now I can appreciate the value of these oral histories. Thanks for starting this channel!

Thank God and YOU for putting together this series of interviews with these lost GIANTS of the comics industry. I started reading and collecting in the midst of what they now call The Silver Age and was hooked on comics until 2014 or so. Thanks for shining light on these dedicated men and women writing, drawing and editing and publishing pages and pages of pages of great printed cinema that kept me entertained for decades. I remember Carmine being a great and unique artist who became a counterpart of Stan Lee at Marvel. He was certainly not the self-promoter that Stan was and worked in relative anonymity in comparison. This interview (and the others I've seen) are pure GOLD for time-capturing the life and character of so many of these great talents that worked in so much obscurity. (I really loved the Marie Severin, John Buscema, Joe Sinnot and Tom Palmer interviews and will be re-watching a lot of them.) Kudos and salutes to whomever had the foresight to sit down and conduct these interviews with these creators who created so much of what is now widely consumed and commercially viable. I can't thank and compliment y'all enough for the great interview questions and agenda. Superb! (I love the fact that he said he drew and drew and drew until he got it all out of his system. What a guy!)

Carmine will always be one of the biggest influences on my life style and comics that will live on as long as the written word continues. From his, tight smooth line work, to fluid machine like quality of figuring out dynamics and problem solving for illustration. His undying contribution to the art form hopefully remains an underlying, foundation for visual arts. I met Carmine some years ago with Julius Swartz hosting a panel about his work. The soft spoken genius of Carmine is almost something ridiculous not to remember among modern day art movements ❤️👍😝💯

Never really lik his style. For me seems like all characters were females 😬 I can see he's not proud what he has crated/done artwise. Totally agree that it's a very lonely job, where you live in constant fantasy. But hey, I always tried to draw when I was a kid, but never had the discipline to sit there for hours. Great interviews, please keep them coming . Thx

Comicguy9611Infantino made some of the all time best covers of the silver age, specially Batman. Jim Lee even made a figure of his cover for the book Batman from the 30s to the 70s. Great background specially architecture. The flash in the brave and the bold that brought back the superheroes and mystery in space issue 90. Publisher of DC comics probably one of the top of heap of comic pros.

As an 8 year-old in 1964, I went into a local candy store to pick up something for my Mom. There were current comics on display in there, and the one that caught my eye turned out to be one of Carmine's New Look Batman covers, probably Detective Comics. I went back the next day with my allowance money & bought that one and as many other titles as I could afford. Collected most DC superhero books for the following decade. Infantino still stands as my favorite comics artist.

😎Was fascinated to watch this A!ex because Carmine's style for my #1 DC Silver Age hero The Flash along with Detective Chimp , Airboy/Heap , Elongated Man , the sci-fi back features , etc are simply top favorites of mine and I came away double fascinated because of the background history Carmine presented so simply and directly. You know I was thinking about George Tuska's interview and how he mentioned he got the job on Scorchy Smith because the syndicate didn't like the guy - Rodlow Willard - who was working on it but I did ; IMO the only artist who didn't fit the strip was the final one - John Mi!t Morris , his style was too cartoony for an adventure strip but was perfect for the single panel strip he took over from Oscar Hitt called Neighborly Neighbors. Like Gene Ahern's Our Boarding House Neighborly Neighbors was a single panel continuity strip , both really enjoyable features.
