    Hours of Madness, Days of Death

    Not surprisingly many comic book artists have their influences and heroes in the 'proper' art world, though perhaps few are as obvious in referencing them as Jim Steranko is here with his homage to the great Salvador Dali.  Of course, if you don't like Dali, you probably aren't going to think much of this particular cover.  I think it's brilliant, though.  The clocks are a reminiscent motif of Dali's work, one of his most famous pieces 'The Persistence of Memory' featured melting clocks and Steranko also has a bit of melting here.  The landscape is also typical Dali, somewhat surreal, seemingly unfinished with curves and jags.  And into all this Steranko has planted Nick Fury.  It's an astonishing and very delicate homage, confirming Steranko's place right at the top of comic book artistry.  My favourite Dali, incidentally, is the God's eye view of the crucified Christ.

    Hours of Madness, Days of Death

    This is perfect case in point of Jim Steranko art style, and good store gaint it was done 1968 , but story still hold up even now days. The fact are if you have this one or of the Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD by Jim Steranko you want to hold to it, because it's pure gold. As fyi Jim Steranko Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD can cost as much $15.00 to $500.00 per Overstreet , I think it would great to Jim Steranko,Alex Ross and Grath Enis to work togetheir on something a Nick Fury in a MAX .
