Remembering Artist Gray Morrow

Remembering artist Gray Morrow (March 7, 1934 - November 6, 2001) on his birthday with a collection of his covers featuring the adaptation of the 1984 movie, Sheena, starring Tanya Roberts as the lead character (Janet Ames, who lost her parents in Africa, and was raised by the local Shaman), with support from Ted Wass.   

The Sheena movie was adapted in 1984 by Cary Burkett, with Gray Morrow providing the art for Marvel Super Special #34, with the story being split into two parts for a pair of Sheena comics, which were cover dated December, 1984 and February, 1984; the movie was a light adventure, with stunning shots of the land of Africa (as well as Ms. Tanya Roberts) suited to the artistic style of Gray Morrow.

Marvel At Jaws 2

While Marvel only captured some of the love movie goers gave to the original Jaws movie, in 1978, they were there to adapt Jaws 2, with Marvel Super Special #6, featuring a Bob Larkin painted cover, and interiors by writer Rick Marschall, penciller Gene Colan and inker Tom Palmer.

Filled with all the fun you expect from an adaptation of a popular movie sequel, with Brody and his family dealing with the return of another shark to the Amity beach!
