Of course in this time period a guy with glasses, a beard, and slightly shaggy hair could only be... well, easily over half the men in comics, including Simonson himself, but my guess is Michelinie too.<br /><br>Blamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342343767763035991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-60302482213704685062017-02-18T17:50:33.444-06:002017-02-18T17:50:33.444-06:00Hazard a guess and say ol' Walt drew Michelini...Hazard a guess and say ol' Walt drew Michelinie as a Rebel pilot.Erik J Kreffelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16600501989135593427noreply@blogger.com
