Fletcher Hanks
Fletcher Hanks comics are filled with rigidly drawn characters battling bizarre forces with powers that are both Godlike and surreal. The use of primary colors in most of Fletcher's comics only adds to the strange dreamlike atmosphere of the stories.

Fletcher Hanks rocks! I love the strange surrealism of his old comics. We have a profile of Stardust up, but we'll have to update it now that we found your blog...

LOVE Fletcher Hanks! Be prepared for Fantagraphics "I Will Destroy All Civilized Planets" which comes out pretty damn soon! Hopefully a few 'Big Red McLane' strps will be in there!
The Fantagraphics stuff will be his COMPLETE works...awesome.
Thanks for so many great links.
Great little commentary on him too, spot on.
