| JOHNNY M - I have been doing business with Anthony's Comic Art for over 10 years and have never had a bad experience. The staff is very professional, efficient, and expedient. The packaging is always secure, and the shipments arrive very quickly and securely. The art manager, Bobby, is a great go between and facilitates orders and communication extremely well. Anthony and his staff will continue to be one of my go to's for original art buying for many years to come! -Johnny Mc (A Forever Customer) |
Gene grew up in New York & graduated from George Washington High School (a one-of-a-kind public school majoring in gifted students in the visual arts). Gene also studied at the Art Students League of New York under renowned illustrator Frank Riley and the famous surrealistic, modern Japanese painter Kuniashi. During World War II, a two year ticket with Special Services in the Army Air Corps found Corporal Colan in the Philippines where his artwork brightened the pages of the Manila Times and won him numerous awards. Back in the States, Gene Colan's official career in comics began in 1944 at Fiction House drawing Wings Comics. Gene then settled down to the task of finding a permanent niche in the comic industry, showing work to both National (DC) and Timely (Marvel) Comics. Stan Lee at Timely Comics was impressed enough to hire Gene for around sixty odd dollars a week. Since that time, Gene has been associated with both companies from 1946 to the present day. In addition, Gene has also freelanced for numerous independent publishers over the years as well.
