McWilliams did get around to the majors eventually, drawing Justice, Inc., inking an issue or two of Luke Cage(!), but by that time his Raymondian style was passe'.

He was a towering talent, and would've been lionized if he'd appeared in those fan-focused venues.<brAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7810302126094349455.post-67108540528287104542009-04-26T07:01:00.000-07:002009-04-26T07:01:00.000-07:00Dell Comics were good comics.
