If you were a devotee of the Green Hornet and Batman while growing up, you're already familiar with the work of illustrator James Aparo, who died this week, according to The Boston Globe:
"His big break came in the late 1960s when he was working for Charlton Press and his editor got a job at DC. The editor, Dick Giordano, brought Aparo with him to the comic book maker. In a 2000 interview with Jim Amash for Comic Book Artist, Aparo said he went to Hartford Art School for a semester, but was mostly self-taught."
