COMIC BOOK CREATOR #44
THIS IS A PRESALE LISTING | FOC DATE 03/02/2026 | ESTIMATED IN-STORE DATE 06/10/2026
The great Flash and “Adam Strange” artist, Carmine Infantino, gets the treatment in CBC #44 with both a comprehensive “Nuff Said” radio interview conducted by Ken Gale and Ed Menje, plus an essay by editor Jon B. Cooke on the artist’s tumultuous stint as DC editorial director and publisher, a period which brought out the absolute best at the company and some of its worst. We also feature an incredible account, R.K. in the U.K., about writer/editor legend Robert Kanigher’s late-in-life love affair with comics fandom in the British Isles… (well, at least his candid 1989 conversations with late Brit fans Steve Whitaker and Tim Bateman!) We also feature Part One of TED JALBERT’s interview with JACK KATZ, and examine the work of Dave Cockrum on those “Aurora Comics Scenes” model kit pamphlets of the 1970s. We start Glen Cadigan’s three-part interview with Joe Hill, horror comics writer and certain “Son of King”! Oh, and, of course, Fred Hembeck, natch!
