They call them "comic books" but some of the artists' work should be represented in American museums. The entire American illustrator movement of the mid-century has been neglected in favor of "anti-art". These artists were "too commercial" but the modern artists were more profitable.

I actually have a piece of original art done by Cardy. A cover to a DC horror comic, which I bought way back in the late-1970’s for about ten bucks.
I didn’t care much for “Teen Titans.” But Cardy was a good artist. Some of his art in the early issues of “Bat Lash” are absolutely beautiful.

Still remember “Aquaman joins the Navy!” from grade school.

I’m surprised that the headline didn’t inlude him being a cover artist for Action Comics (Superman) as well.

Cardy might have had the consistently best covers of 1960s comics — Teen Titans & Aquaman, in particular.
