Cn3t_hHVUAAqA9HHis 90th birthday is in two months time, but the artist known for his war stories for DC Comics, for Playboy's Little Annie Fannie and a twentieth century of Americana, is accepting new commissions, with the details above.

Also famously, panels of his from  sixties war comic All-American Men of War was taken by Roy Lichtenstein and turned into the paintings Blam and Brattatta.
