Hell, ill even make the movie myself if i could. Mike golden is a great artist, no doubt about it! Can anybody tell me if it was Micheal who did illustrations for an Aztec warrior book cause the detail was similar? i loved looking at and reading the first 12 issues of NAM my dad was a history teacher of the vietnam war so i gave my collection for him to use in his classes ,i think the kids stole them cause they were so good!

And like Adams, you could aften become disapointed as soon as you actuallly opened the book to read it. He made me collect ROM, MICRONAUTS, and the Roger Stern run of DOCTOR STRANGE(which was a good thing since I would have missed a great run). Golden's work in BATMAN FAMILY is among my favorite too. Golden is from the same new wave of the early bronze age as Wrightson, Simonson, Kaluta, Chaykin, Marshall Rogers. It's a sad common trait that most of these guys produced very little in the many years they have been in the business. Golden is also one of these artist who has to ink himself to do his art justice. Do you guys remember a BATMAN SPECIAL from a few years ago, with a one-shot villain called the Wrath which was horribly inked by Mike DeCarlo I think.

He's one of my absolute favorite artists. It was baffling to me that, at the New York Con, he wasn't surrounded at his table. I got the chance to talk to him for a couple minutes, and was blown away by how humble and self-effacing he was. Oh, and one of my favorite Golden shots: That big Marvel Universe book that came out ten years ago has a two page spread that he did of the 80's heroes. Amazing picture. Can't find a scan though...

Or at least he didn't sign it. Mary Wilshire did. (Isn't her first name Mary?) And those Detective covers he did (less than ten, I think) were very neat. Michael Golden didn't draw that Barbie cover.

I have to admit I'm not that familiar with Michael Golden being more of a DC man (especially of old) but that Nightwing picture is excellent.
