Zuma, Man of Mars
“In 1950, the world of wrestling was introduced to a masked competitor that called himself ‘Zuma, Man of Mars.’ Also known as ‘The Great Zuma’, the man entered the ring wearing a long cape secured with a chest plate bearing the letter ‘Z,’ and an otherworldly headpiece with an antenna-like top that concealed his face. Zuma gained popularity on the wrestling circuit during his debut year, garnering attention for being quick on his feet and winning the majority of his matches. It was that fancy footwork—and a striking resemblance—that ultimately unveiled the true identity of the mysterious Martian to be Carl J. Engstrom, a DePaul student and former star boxer for the university.”

Gold Key Comics Club News. In ‘Part II: Seek and Destroy’, M.A.R.S. helps fend off the attack on Miami even as ‘Victor’ escapes, determined to redeem himself. A booby trap from his own side kills him just as M.A.R.S. discovers the secret underwater base, which they then destroy.” [source]

One Beautiful Spring Day
“During the course of creating the 100 pages that brought ONE BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY into existence I redrew a number of pages several times. In the case of the drawing here I drew this large 2-page spread no less than three times. Why? Because of the aerial elements. The plummeting ball with the twisting smoke was too literal, having been foreshadowed in a way intended to be symbolic. The other objects in the air had too much personality, which raised unwanted questions; and there weren’t enough background explosions. In short these’s nothing at all wrong with this drawing; in fact in some ways it’s the best of the three. But it wasn’t exactly matched to its connecting moments, so I re-drew it.” -Jim Woodring, india ink on bristol, 18.75″ x 12.25″, 2020.
