You would have caught it after 36 or 37 years I'm sure...

Flessel did interiors too of course - most notable Sandman.

Flessel did a nice job on this cover:

 

dang that's a nice copy and perhaps his best cover here's a pencil sketch he did in 2000

The cover of my FEDERAL MEN #2 is alleged to be a swipe of Creig

Flessel's cover for DETECTIVE COMICS #9.

No, that's the dungeon in Ro's basement.

I guess I'll wait until I can see what everyone else has posted before pulling and scanning mine.  I really wish I could get my hands on some more of his Sandman covers.

Gotta be one of my top five Flessel cover favorites!  I love his bold line strokes.
