Comic Book Creator #5 gets cooking with our 'All This, and Denis' Kitchen Sink, Too' number! We talk with the creator of many hats - cartoonist, publisher, author, CBLDF firebrand, and art agent (and world-renowned Nancy and Li'l Abner collector) - to discuss his friendships with Harvey Kurtzman, R. Crumb, Will Eisner, and many more; never mind his achievements as legendary underground comix publisher at Kitchen Sink Press. Plus: Bob Fingerman is slaving for his monthly Minimum Wage; Jorge Khoury on artist Frank Espinosa's latest triumph; Fred Hembeck recalls his Kitchen Sink contributions; Blake Bell traces the final, glorious years of Bill Everett and the man's exquisite final run on Sub-Mariner in a poignant, sober crescendo of life; separating the facts from myth regarding William Blake Everett; Part 2 of Michael Aushenker's interview with Denys Cowan on the man's years in cartoon animation and a triumphant return to comics; Prof. Carol L. Tilley discusses her findings of shoddy research and falsified evidence in Dr. Wertham's Seduction of the Innocent, the notorious book that almost took down the entire comic book industry; colorist supreme Tom Ziuko illuminates his hue-drenched life. Edited by Jon B. Cooke. 80 pages.
