Wild Boy of the Congo #14 - Matt Baker cover

Matt Baker

Wild Boy of the Congo v1 #14, 1955 - An all too common theme for jungle covers, the title character saves a damsel in distress from a stampeding herd. Although the scene is drawn from a straightforward bird's eye view, Matt Baker opts for minimal foreshortening and a more complete rendition of the main figures. The drawing nicely contrasts the graceful rescue against the chaotic background below. Other artists in this golden age comic include Ross Andru.
