Of all that is doing good "international" with and for the comic, we'll talk another time: today I want to dwell on the sticker you see above, and found that the number still on the newsstands, the No. 804. The author is Harry Bliss the "New Yorker", but this time, unlike the previous ones, did not make me laugh so much. Perhaps because I immediately had an unpleasant feeling of déjà vu , so that scene and then suddenly I were family. In fact, after a little research, I managed to find the original image, a cover of 1962's "Tales to Astonish" created by the great Jack Kirby and that you can see below. Tribute or scopiazzatura? The attempt (failed) to imitate the style of the King would favor the first hypothesis, although in this case, our friend Bliss could strive a little 'more to acknowledge the source. Who knows, maybe the quote was explained in an article in the New Yorker, but the doubt remains strong.
(the caption of the cartoon reads:
"Ok, I'm at the window. Right? To my right, or yours?" )
