Still waiting for the definitive book on this amazing woman’s career. Is any book in the works from the usual suspects (TwoMorrows, etc)? Or, if there is a book, could someone direct me to it? I’ve adored Ms. Severin and her work for decades, and think she is one of the unsung heroes of the biz.
Happy Birthday, Marie!

At the very least, Marvel should issue “Essential Not Brand Ecch”!

Art collector Dewey Cassell has said he’s working on a book about Severin. His book, The Art of George Tuska, was published by TwoMorrows. Rough Stuff #7 has an excerpt from an interview Cassell did with Severin and also has samples of her artwork. Michael Pinto worked up an online tribute to Severin. Apparently a PDF version of Rough Stuff #7 can be had for $2.95 from Bob McLeod.

Marvel would do us all a favor by printing every cover rough/layout she did for the House of Ideas.

Thanks for the info, Synsidar! I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for the Cassell book (and most likely pick up the excerpted interview as well).

About 3 or 4 years ago when I used to work at a call center that made calls for various charities, I unexpectedly got to talk to Ms. Severin who was very sweet where most peolpe aren’t too keen on being asked for money over the phone. I told her that I myself was an aspiring artist and that she was an inspiration to me AND she was nice enough to make a donation that day. Happy Birthday Marie, hope you enjoyed that yummy-looking cake!

She has always been a great artist and a great lady. I remember her first work . A collection, of some of her art, would be fantastic. But, a graphic novel from one of her series would be better yet. I wish her well.
