Bio:
Murphy Clyde Anderson is one of the all-time great comic artists. His career spans over 50 years, and includes characters as diverse as Hawkman, the Specter, the Atomic Knights and Buck Rogers. His clean style and detailed brushwork set the tone for many of the DC Comics of the Silver Age. He created the definitive portrayals of the Flash, Adam Strange, Batman, and Superman with his evocative inking. Even before he became one of comics' greatest artists, Anderson was a science fiction fan; he's a member of First Fandom. He began his career working for the legendary Planet Stories pulp magazine in the 1940s and also applied his talents to its sister publication, Planet Comics
