	John Buscema \| Obituaries \| Guardian Unlimited
		Two years after graduating, Buscema was hired to draw crime, western and romance for Timely Comics, Marvel's forerunner, learning from staff artists Carl Burgos, inventor of the Human Torch, and Syd Shores, artist on Captain America, under the youthful editorship of Stan Lee.
		Buscema was instructed to incorporate Kirby's distinctive foreshortening effects and combat choreography into his artwork, but combined them with his own more illustrative facial expressions and accurate musculature.
		Lee's grandiloquence, and Buscema's melodramatic figurework, refined the Silver Surfer in his solo comic, revealing a tragic alien imprisoned on earth, despairing of mankind's inhumanity in anguished soliloquies and yet struggling on in our defence.

	Talent Pool 02 - John Buscema (1998)
		Perhaps the only reason that I didn't pick John Buscema first is because, although he has retired from the industry after a long, long stretch of dissatisfaction with his role in a limiting medium, he also left us so much material during his many years of work that it's difficult to miss him.
		Buscema took another year of life drawing, later, at the Brooklyn Museum, and sometimes one might wish that a minimum of anatomical education would go into the training of the up and coming talents of what remains of the industry.
		Buscema says that Stan Lee handed him a stack of Kirby stuff as study material, and, perplexed about what he was to do, Buscema cribbed some technique from Marvel's resident celebrity.

		John figures a larger tank of water—actually ice at the beginning of the race—stays cooler longer.
		John has worked hard to reduce and redirect underhood air, and his exterior streamlining tricks include removing the outside rearview mirrors, cleaning off the drip rails and paying attention to the windshield moldings.
		John has detailed the installation with safety-wired bolts, and he says the ability to retain the stock throwout bearing is a big plus, as there is no room underhood for the clutch master cylinder a hydraulic system would require.

	John Buscema - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Buscema, true name Giovanni Natale Buscema (December 11, 1927–January 10, 2002) was an American comic book artist and one of the mainstays of Marvel Comics in its 1960s and 1970s heyday.
		Buscema's pencils on Conan in the 1970s are some his finest work as he developed a new heroic adventure story style with the Sword and Sorcery genre producing stories which are a high-water mark in terms of comic book action, movement, power, expression, mood, and dynamics.
		Buscema's passion for drawing was such that he continued to draw and sketch in his spare time (often on the back of comic book art pages) and these images form a considerable body of work in their own right.

		John Buscema, the man responsible for Conan the Barbarian and Silver Surfer, teaches a few of the basic drawing skills while Stan Lee demonstrates several others.
		Stan and John were great friends and they enjoyed working together, and as long as this film continues to exist, we can see them working and talking with each other and see how any and every idea for a story that they had, they put on paper.
		The original book was just Buscema's comic book drawing course, to which Stan wrote some psuedo-hip "Marvel" patter as a way of marketing it to a wider audience, and this is undoudtedly another scheme to cash in a little more, which must have taken the old partners part of a whole day to do.

	John Buscema (1927-2002) - SFWA News
		Buscema was a long-term mainstay of Marvel Comics, having drawn nearly every character at one time or another.
		Buscema had drawn comics since the late 1940s for many different companies (Dell, ACG, Charlton, Timely/Atlas/Marvel), but his peak years were during what amounted to a second career, starting in the 1960s.
		Buscema was not a great innovator and for most of his Marvel output, he followed other artists -- Barry Windsor-Smith on CONAN, for example, and Jack Kirby on THE FANTASTIC FOUR -- but he was an exceptional draftsman and storyteller who was highly regarded by his peers.

		Buscema drew Conan for another two decades, and his issues far outsold those of his predecessor.
		Issue #25 "The Mirrors of Kharam Akkad," inked by Sal Buscema and John Severin (the latter does the King Kull flashback pages in a nice touch), is inspired in part by Howard's "The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune" story, another one of those stories where a sorcerer tries to get the better of Conan.
		Buscema's Conan is a larger, more muscular version of the barbarian than what we saw with Windsor-Smith's art, which I always read as representing the fact he was a more mature character at that point.

		Buscema's women are not the pencil-thin waits, giant bosoms of today's comics, but REAL women; sensuous, often buxom and with his trademark pouty lips.
		John was an incredibly adept illustrator and comic artist who unfortunately married his work to the drawing of Conan.
		John was often seen doing gorgeous doodles on the backs of comic pages he'd drawn that looked better than the finished work on the other side.

		If Buscema's art looks a little dated today, it may be because first off, this book was made to be simple and easy to understand, and the art is done likewise, not cluttered up with intense detail and crosshatching.
		Buscema's comic ideal is limiting in that Lee/Buscema propose the figure to look a certain height or look, when heroes comes in all shape and sizes.
		Buscema's art here is worth the cost of the book as most of his work was inked by other artists.

	Talent Pool 11 - Sal Buscema (Apr 1999)
		Sal Buscema came into his own under the umbrella of the John Buscema house style and, though clearly derivative in his work, nonetheless managed to distinguish himself by endearing pieces across a long span of years and many titles.
		Sal Buscema worked in a world not overly realistic, nor overly cartoonish, nor dominated by an inner weirdness a reader might have to learn to appreciate; to him, handsome and accessible work fulfilled his artistic aims.
		As a penciller, Sal Buscema developed a style clearly derivative of John Buscema's style (one would see a similar parallel in the styles of John and Marie Severin).

		John Buscema was without a doubt one of the greatest artists that have ever touched the comic art form.
		John Buscema's work was considered the Marvel house style for a while after Jack Kirby, but his art will continue to inspire readers and influence artists for years to come.
