“Never draw anything you can copy, never copy anything you can trace, never trace anything you can cut out and paste up.” The legendary Wallace Wood said it — and in this special presentation, we take a fun look at some of the most blatant swipes and homages by some of the greats (and others) of the business. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll never again wonder why Woody and others lived by that dictum. Join Greg Goldstein (IDW Publishing, Topps) and Wood Studio veteran and industry legend Howard Chaykin (American Flagg!, Hey Kids, Comics!) for a wild look at some sneaky (and not so sneaky) artistic shortcuts. Hat tip to the popular Facebook Group Comic Book Swipes — hey if we didn’t swipe the idea, what kind of panel would this be?
