Here's to Ruth Atkinson, creator of Millie the Model. This cover is iconic, although it was many years after Ruth left the title. Millie was Marvel's longest running woman-lead title, I believe.

Hey Abe, good topic but just FYI Lily Renee did not draw that Planet Comics cover in your OP. That cover is by Joe Doolin. Renee did do the interior art for the Mysta story, if that's what you meant.

Simply because the artist is Lily Renée. Please check the link to the wikipedia page to learn more about her absolutely incredible history. This cover is to honor this incredible lady.
At any rate, here's my cover-- and yes, it's by the incredible Lily Renee. Her sig is by Senorita Rio's foot.

Thanks for the correction, Shalla Bal! To be honest I was surprised and I shouldn't have trusted comicbookdb... She seems to have done the cover of Planet Comics #39 though according to both comicbookdb and GCD, which is signed, thus my mistake... I didn't use it because it wasn't really decent for the theme.

I saw your entry on the french wikipedia page, but the legend was ambiguous and I didn't saw the signature. I'm glad I didn't use it : it's so beautiful that it deserves to get much votes!
I have changed the first post...
Great entries so far, ladies and gentlemen!Last edited by Abe; 03-08-2017 at 02:27 PM.
