Is that Rubenstein on the inks? If so, those pencils must have been super-tight! Funny, I guess I never realized that original art doesn't have the lettering on it ... or is that just in some cases...?
I don't see Matt's clarification anymore, but I wonder if he said what I'm about to-- the issue was shot from pencils, so no one inked that page. Rubenstein inked a one-page epilogue to the story and was cryptically credited for an "assist" or something that made it sound like maybe he inked the issue. But no, the main story is all done in very tight pencils.
Fantastic Find! That looks amazing. Was this inside the issue? and if so do you think you could find a color version to compare?

ReplyDeleteHey Stephen, while Rubenstein was the inker for Byrne's run on Cap, Byrne actually inked this issue himself, including this double-page spread.
ReplyDeleteHey Matt, thanks for the clarification.

ReplyDeleteStrange, Matt's comment has been deleted somehow. And yes, this page was uninked and shot from the pencils.
