Wild Boy of the Congo #12 - Matt Baker cover

Matt Baker

Wild Boy of the Congo v1 #12, 1955 - Perhaps the weakest of his covers on the series, Matt Baker nonetheless does a capable job. The artist employs several diagonal lines in the composition but leaves depth to a minimum. Wild Boy of the Congo swings into the scene's foreground, defending himself against a gunman. The antagonist's face is unkempt and unshaven, usually an indication of the story's villain. Other artists in this golden age comic include Frank Kramer. This is 2 of 5 Wild Boy of the Congo issues by Baker.
