What If…? #24 (Isabella/Kane, Dec 1980). Pete dives after Gwendy on the fateful bridge. She lives, and what follows is somehow even more tragic than the alternative.

[aboutzatanna]

Leave it to Tony Isabella (creator of Black Lightning) to have Zatanna guest star in Hawkman Vol 2 #4 because her debut was in Hawkman Vol 1 #4.

Also Richard Howell's art paired with this lovely quote:

"The very first time she performed he told her, you give your children two things; one is roots; the other wings."

Even though they don't get to interact as much as they should, the Hawks and Zatanna are still pretty close, especially Zee and Shayera. Even Hawkman noticing that Zatanna is putting up a cheerful face to mask the pain of her father's death:

Hawkman Vol 2 was kicked off after the amazing Shadow War of Hawkman mini series (highly recommended if you're interested in the Thanagarian versions of the Hawks).

April 1974. The Boris Vallejo cover painting and "Night of the Snow Vampire" caption allude, somewhat vaguely, to this issue's adaptation by Tony Isabella of the 1939 August Derleth short story "The Drifting Snow," exquisitely drawn by Spanish artist Esteban Maroto:

Ghost Rider #18 (Isabella/Robbins, June 1976). I’m truly stunned how often Jesus Christ appears as a supporting character in this book.

There is no comic writer I seem to universally like. But Stan Lee and Steve Gerber may come closest to being the best. At least for Marvel (seeing as neither of these men did much for DC).. Stan Lee is the master of bombastic dialogue and funny stories, while steve gerber can balance comedy with tragedy and philosophy. Both of these two seemed capable of doing whatever they set their minds to. And so i think they're some of my favorite writers. But i like stuff from other writers too. Steve Englehart and Roy Thomas have both done some good stuff, as did Archie Goodwin and Tony Isabella and stuff. I could probably talk about some of these writers in more depth, since i have read a lot of marvel's 60s and 70s output now.
