90. Fandom Confidential
(1982). Art by Jim Engel.
Engle and collaborator Chuck Fiala
wrote and drew a satirical fumetti-style commentary in
the fanzine The Comic Reader (founded by a teen-aged Paul
Levitz). Engel and Fiala generally depicted themselves as TV
news commentators, exchanging trenchant comments on mainstream
comics and their creators. When the pair "interviewed"
the height-impaired Jim Steranko he could not be seen
because his head didn't reach the table. In another skit a commentary
about Frank Miller's use of "heavy blacks" turned
out to be his inclusion of Ella Fitzgerald and Fats Domino. Kitchen
Sink Press published a compilation of Fandom Confidential
in magazine format and produced this promotional button for
retailers and fans.
Diameter 2.25 inches. $3.00
One note, for serious button collectors,
you may want to read the KSP
BUTTON TEXT which explains the numbering systems for
identifying the various buttons produced over the last 30 years,
or see the COMPLETE
KSP BUTTON LIST. The list is VERY long, so be patient
while it loads.
