I grew up with seeing Kubert in the war comics doing covers, interiors and editing. Immediately fell in love with his work. For a long time I felt Enemy Ace was his best work alongside his Hawkman and then I gradually discovered that to say he had a "best" was to bearing false witness since it seemed like everything he did throughout his life in comics was Kubert always besting himself. It was a pure delightful treat whenever Joltin' Joe (sorry Sinnott, I kind of feel like that moniker fits Kubert as well ) graced the covers of any superhero comic I was buying. His unique style gave every hero he touched a well defined difference in their portrayal under his sturdy (again, sorry Ditko, Kubert was both STURDY and RELIABLE) pencils. There is always a lean, hungry, defiant to the end quality that Kubert gave his heroes. A look to them that said yes, you may have hurt me physically, but I am NOT defeated and I am still standing here and I will not stop until your utter and total defeat at my hands! A pure inner strength and vitality of conviction burned inwardly and outwardly from a Kubert hero, whether they were a viking prince swinging a sword, a cowboy slapping weather, a soldier standing firm against the enemy or a  super powered hero stopping villains across the world and universes! You knew a Kubert hero stood tall and was a true hero and wouldn't fail!
