Birthdays

Marie Severin 1929, comic book artist and colorist best known for her work for Marvel Comics and the 1950s' EC Comics. Marie Severin's earliest recorded comic-book work is coloring EC Comics' A Moon, a Girl...Romance #9 (Oct. 1949). She would contribute across the company's line, including its war comics and its celebrated but notoriously graphic horror comics, for which she sometimes gave especially gruesome panels a single color in order to tone down otherwise graphic scenes of gore. She drew stories of the Sub-Mariner and the Hulk, and the covers or interiors of titles including The Amazing Spider-Man, Iron Man, Conan the Barbarian, Kull the Conqueror, The Cat, and Daredevil. Additionally, she worked on Marvel's satiric humor magazine Crazy, as well as the company's self-lampooning comic book, Not Brand Echh.
