Remembering Legendary Artist Joe Kubert

Remembering artistic legend, Joe Kubert, on his birthday (September 18, 1926 - August 12, 2012), with a very early cover in his career, from the Son Of Sinbad #1 (February, 1950) from St. John Publishing Company, which has been collected in the Joe Kubert Archives #1 - Weird Horrors & Daring Adventures (December, 2012), where he provided pencils and inks for two stories of the Son Of Sinbad...."Ransom Of The Shipwreck Shoals!" (freeing slave girl Elene from the evil Mytar) and "The Curse Of The Caliph's Dancer" (searching for a prize pearl to get the hand of Kina, the Pearl Of Baghdad), as well as likely inking the third story, "The Merchant Of Menace" (wherein he was working to recover items stolen by the Sultan).




One additional story appeared in Abbott and Costello Comics #10 (August, 1950), "The Princess Of Pirate Cove", where he rescued a woman and Princess Xenia from the island of Lahru.
