Jack Cole, most recently the subject of a book profile by Art Spiegelman and Chip Kidd (Jack Cole and Plastic Man: Forms Stretched To Their Limits) has been justly celebrated as the creator of Plastic Man and an innovative comic book artist of the 1940s.
Cole had sold a handful of cartoons to magazines such as Boy's Life, Colliers and Judge in the '30s and '40s, but after finishing his 14-year run on Plastic Man, he found himself back at square one in an idiom that didn't come naturally to him: the gag cartoon.
While Cole may have been honing his skills as a gag writer, his ability to render the female form was already without peer.

In this story, as in so many of Cole's most violent fantasies, the bad guy turns out to be a parent who is willing to destroy their own child.

 Amazon.com: Jack Cole and Plastic Man: Forms Stretched to Their Limits: Books: Art Spiegelman,Chip Kidd   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
Jack Cole's manic Plastic Man—a rubbery superhero of the forties and fifties, capable of stretching and bending into virtually anything—was a true comic-book innovation.
Jack Cole is better served by this fairly strange book than many other great cartoonists of the golden age of the medium have been in print.
Granted, Cole was one of the pioneers of comics, and his place in their history is cemented, but Spiegelman's praise of Cole and his visual style/storytelling could easily be used for any number of other comic creators (Will Eisner, Harvey Kurtzman, Bob Kane, etc.).
