Scamp & Bongo!

Today let's enjoy the crystal-clear draftsmanship and brushwork of Al Hubbard, displayed in these two stories from Scamp No. 6, June-August 1958. There is an elegance to Hubbard's work that is always lovely to look at.

Again . . . elegance! Hubbard's refined skills shine from this inside front cover.

  1. I remember the artwork in that Scamp comic looking really good. It would come in those 3 pack bagged comics at the grocery.

  2. Hi, I'm just wondering if you'd like to see some comics drawn by me. I'm a kid. I post them on my website at http://comicsbyme.weebly.com
    Feel free to read them and give me feedback on the blog.
    Thank you very much!

  4. Oh man, Mykal, I LOVE this guy's stuff! As a wee one, I remember poring over his "Mary Jane & Sniffles" pages and trying to duplicate his ink lines with my Flair pens (Note: It can't be done).

    Another fantastic, prolific artist that needs some recognition at comic con memorials!

    Thanks for posting this Mykal!
