Howard the Duck #2 - Frank Brunner art & cover, Jim Starlin art

Howard the Duck #2, 1975 - Howard the Duck goes up against the villainous Space Turnip in this satirical second issue. Frank Brunner's cover combines superhero and cartoon character elements in a way that's both appealing and entertaining. Credited at the end of the interior story, artist Jim Starlin assists with most of the page layouts. Brunner adheres to them faithfully but both styles are clearly evident on almost every page. Much of the credit for the smooth consistency goes to the capable inks of Steve Leialoha. This is number 2 of 2 Howard the Duck issues with Brunner art and/or covers and number 1 of 1 Howard the Duck issues with Starlin art and/or covers.
