Found this just recently. According to the info, it's a page of an unpublished Mort Meskin take on Macbeth set in the world of gangsters. Suspiciously similar to the 1955 movie Joe Macbeth. Some of the best Meskin art I think I've ever seen, though.   |

Damn, that's good! Makes me want to edit an anthology of Shakespeare stories just to include it!

Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #110  So what does this have to do with Shakespeare, I hear you ask? Well, the lead story is "Jimmy Olsen's Blackest Deeds" by Jim Shooter and Curt Swan. Here is the summary from ComicVine: And it turns out that those 'bad things' includes the assassination of Julius Caesar, which plays out very much as Will described it:  I may need to track a copy of this down

Deleted scene from one of the X-Men movies, with Beast quoting from "Henry V."
(Based on Kelsey Grammer's reading, we can surmise that the Beast is of porcine ancestry.)

Some of the best Meskin art I think I've ever seen, though. Mort Meskin is another of those lesser-known artists who inspired or mentored all of those artists who are household names. Roy Crane falls into that category, too. |
