Anyone who says Don Heck was a terrible artist is a friggin' moron.
Don was a great artist. he just wasn't suited to superheroes. you look at the romance/mystery/crime comics he did while he was at Timely, and that stuff easily stands up with Kirby, or Ditko, I think.
Exactly!
Man, the old Journey Into Mysteries stories... Great stuff. I remember having a few issues of Avengers with Heck artwork. Lots of energy and verve.
Total agreement with the above comments in praise of Heck!
However, while this may fall under the category of "too obvious to bother mentioning" I'll say it anyway for the sake of history: the first page is Kirby pencils inked by Heck. I love that team and wish we had even more of them working together.
I was gonna mention the Kirby input but figured we all knew that as well.
