I'd originally hoped to include it in a wider Marvel Westerns post, but it quickly became apparent that as Two-Gun Kid was going to need two posts to cover adequately, I'd have to hold the other characters for their own entries.AirPiratePresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13136561512898563240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419605150672201683.post-22710334467146279832018-06-15T02:00:49.907-07:002018-06-15T02:00:49.907-07:00That's a key quote, Nick ... it reveals exactl...That's a key quote, Nick ... it reveals exactly when working from Stan's synopsis became the norm for Marvel artists. I'd always thought it was later than 1962. Other accounts have always been a bit vague about when the Method became standard procedure ... thanks for sharing.AirPiratePresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13136561512898563240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419605150672201683.post-24476740350848628262018-06-14T16:51:19.198-07:002018-06-14T16:51:19.198-07:00Dick Ayers revealed that "The Bronc Buster&qu...Dick Ayers revealed that "The Bronc Buster" was the first story he worked on from a plot synopsis: "The first one I had came on the Two-Gun Kid, a story called 'The Bronc Buster' or something, where this guy's at a rodeo. It was a little short story. He said "here, try this", and he gave me a paragraph for a synopsis. Bingo, it worked great!" <br />Nick Caputohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05096100224095280865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419605150672201683.post-89806757653924505112018-06-08T10:54:35.518-07:002018-06-08T10:54:35.518-07:00Darling Dick Ayers...

I did buy a Night Rider print which he signed. Really not sure why I bought it other than I thought it was more tasteful than Sue in lingerie?<br /><br /><br />Anyhow another superlative post!
