Gil Kane

GIL KANE In a career spanning five decades, Gil worked for almost every major comic book company and on nearly every character and almost single-handedly redefined the super-hero genre. He co-created the modern-day version of Green Lantern,Atom, Iron Fist and Adam Warlock and drew the seminal Amazing Spider-Man #96-98 which featured a comic-authority code breaking anti-drug story line at the behest of the U.S. Department of Health. He was also an early pioneer of the graphic novel format with his book: His Name is…Savage. He was inducted into both the Wil Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame and the Harvey Award Jack Kirby Hall of Fame.
