JOHN SEVERIN
Two-Fisted Tales 39
John Powers Severin (December 26, 1921 – February 12, 2012) was an American comic book artist noted for his distinctive work with EC Comics, primarily on the war comics Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat; for Marvel Comics, especially its war and Western comics; and for his 45-year stint with the satiric magazine Cracked. He was one of the founding cartoonists of Mad in 1952.
Severin was inducted into the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame in 2003.titles.
EC Comics
For EC Comics, he broke in with the seven-page "War Story" in Two-Fisted Tales #19 (Feb. 1951), continuing to work in tandem with his friend Elder as his inker, notably on science fiction and war stories.Severin drew stories for both Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat. When Kurtzman dropped the war comics to devote more time to Mad, Severin became sole artist on Two-Fisted Tales for four issues and wrote many of the stories as well. He also illustrated stories scripted by his friend Colin Dawkins and future Mad art director John Putnam. Severin and Dawkins were the uncredited co-editors of Two-Fisted Tales #36-39.
Severin and Elder eventually split as a team at EC. They both were in the group of the five original artists who launched editor Harvey Kurtzman's landmark satiric comic book Mad, along with Kurtzman, Wally Wood and Jack Davis. Severin appeared in nine of Mad's first ten issues, drawing ten pieces between 1952 and 1954. According to accounts by both Severin and Kurtzman, the two had a falling out over art criticisms Kurtzman made during this period. It was Kurtzman who suggested that Severin ink with a pen as opposed to brush inking. Though Severin eventually took this advice in his later work, he was annoyed at Kurtzman at the time, for this and other remarks, and refused further work with him. Kurtzman insisted on doing the layouts for all the artists, which some resented, including Severin.
His ability to draw people of different nationalities convincingly was highly admired by his peers, as was his eye for authentic details. Upon Severin's death, writer Mark Evanier remembered, "Jack Kirby used to say that when he had to research some historical costume or weapon for a story, it was just as good to use a John Severin drawing as it was to find a photo of the real thing. They don’t make ‘em like that anymore."
Marvel Comics and other publishers
Following the cancellation of EC's comic book line in the wake of the Comics Code in the mid-1950s, Severin began working for Atlas Comics, the 1950s forerunner of Marvel Comics. Artist and colorist Stan Goldberg, a company colleague recalled in 2005,
"I was in the [company's artist room known as the] Bullpen with a lot of well-known artists who worked up there at that time. We had our Bullpen up there until about 1958 or 1959. the Bullpen staff was let go in 1957 The guys... who actually worked nine-to-five and put in a regular day, and not the freelance guys who'd come in a drop off their work... were almost a hall-of-fame group of people. There was John Severin. Bill Everett. Carl Burgos. There was the all-time great Joe Maneely... We all worked together, all the colorists and correction guys, the letterers and artists... We had a great time."
After Atlas transitioned to become Marvel Comics in the 1960s, Severin did extensive work as penciler, inker or both on such series as The Incredible Hulk, The 'Nam, Conan the Barbarian, Captain Savage, What The?! and Semper Fi. Herb Trimpe, the primary Hulk penciler during this period comics fans and historians call the Silver Age of comic books, said in 2009, "I was kind of thrilled when John Severin inked me, because I liked his work for EC comics, and he was one of my idols." As inker, Severin teamed with penciler Dick Ayers on an acclaimed run of the World War II series Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos, beginning with #44 (July 1967). In the 1970s, he collaborated with his sister, artist Marie Severin, on Marvel's sword and sorcery series, King Kull.
During this time he was by far the most prolific contributor to the satiric Cracked magazine, drawing television and movie parodies along with other features, including most of the magazine's covers. Severin's 45-year run as Cracked's preeminent creator while simultaneously doing "straight" work for other comic books demonstrated his versatility and skill in successfully moving from genre to genre. Reacting to his own company's obituary of Severin, Fantagraphics co-publisher Kim Thompson wrote, "I don’t think I’m alone in thinking of Cracked for most of its run as “a bunch of crap, and John Severin.”
For Warren Publishing in the 1970s, he drew for the black-and-white comics magazines Blazing Combat and Creepy. Severin also contributed to Topps' line of bubble gum trading cards.
Circa 2000, writer Jeff Mariotte recalled in 2002, Severin phoned Scott Dunbier, a group editor at DC Comics' WildStorm imprint, "and said he was looking to do comics again" after working primarily for Cracked at the time. "I happened to pass by Scott's office as he hung up the phone, and he sounded kind of awestruck as he told me that John Severin wanted to do something with us. I said something like, 'Gee, a Desperadoes story by Severin would be great,'" referring to Mariotte's Western miniseries for DC. "Scott agreed. We needed to hurry, before he was snapped up by someone else, so I went home and worked up a proposal overnight. We had sent him, right after that first call, copies of the original Desperadoes books. That was followed up by the proposal, the next day. He liked what he saw and wanted to play along." This led to Severin drawing the sequel miniseries Desperadoes: Quiet of The Grave.
He went on to illustrate the controversial 2003 Marvel limited series The Rawhide Kid, a lighthearted parallel universe Western that reimagined the outlaw hero as a kitschy though still formidably gunslinging gay man. Severin, who had drawn the character for Atlas in the 1950s, refuted rumors that he had not known of the subject matter, saying at the time of the premiere issue's release, "The Rawhide Kid is rather effeminate in this story. It may be quite a blow to some of the old fans of Rawhide Kid. But it's a lot of fun, and he's still a tough hombre." Also in the 2000s, Severin contributed to Marvel's The Punisher; DC Comics' Suicide Squad, American Century, Caper, and Bat Lash; and Dark Horse Comics' Conan, B.P.R.D. and Witchfinder.

The only son of Flora Bigelow and Charles Stuart Dodge, John Bigelow Dodge (almost always called Johnny) had a fairly typical childhood for an American son of wealth, attending toney boarding schools and college, but afterward he spent much time in England with his mother and stepfather. After war broke out in Europe in 1914, he became a naturalized British citizen. Winston Churchill, first cousin of Johnny's stepfather and at that time First Lord of the Admiralty, arranged for Johnny to be commissioned in his own Royal Naval Division. Johnny served in the 7th Battalion of the Royal Naval Division first at Antwerp, then at Gallipoli. Just prior to the assault at Galipoli, Johhny helped to dig a grave for his fellow soldier, the celebrated young poet, Rupert Brooke, who had died on the way to battle. Lieutenant Dodge was wounded at Gallipoli and was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. He then transferred to the British Army with the rank of captain, to the 10th Battalion Queen's Royal West Surrey Regiment, with whom he served on the Western Front. He was promoted to major and was wounded on more than one occasion, ending the war as an acting LTC commanding the 16th Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment fighting in France.
After the war, Johnny made several expeditions to China, Burma, and the Caucasus, where he was arrested by the Russian secret police as a suspected spy. His trip was ostensibly to establish business connections for an import/export business, but many historians feel he was in fact working as an M16 spy. After a few months of painful captivity, he managed to avoid execution, but was expelled from Russia and ordered not to return. He then served on London County Council, became a member of the London Stock Exchange and the director of a New York bank. Johnny married a divorced North Carolina belle named Minerva Arrington Sherman in New York in 1929.
At the outbreak of World War 2, Johnny, now in his mid forties, re-enlisted into the British Army at the rank of major, serving with the Highland Infantry Division. When his division surrendered at Saint-Valery-en-Caux in 1940, Johnny attempted to evade capture, and swam out to sea in an attempt to board some ships he could see on the horizon. However the ships moved off before he could reach them, so he swam back, covering approximately seven miles before coming ashore. He was then captured by the Germans and became a Prisoner of War. With other POWs from the Allied defeat in France, Johnny was forced to march towards Germany, where his bare feet became badly cut up and swollen. When he could no longer walk, he was put on a barge, from which he jumped overboard but was captured and handed over to a Luftwaffe. He was then sent to the Dulag Luft camp at Oberursel. It was from here that Johnny made his second escape attempt. Johnny, with 14 others, used a tunnel to make their bid for freedom. All the escapees were recaptured and transferred to Stalag Luft I at Barth. Johnny was then transferred to Stalag Luft III at Sagan in April 1942, and in November 1942, he was transferred again, to Oflag XXI-B at Schubin in occupied Poland. On the way to that camp, Johnny escaped from the train, but was shot at and quickly recaptured. From Oflag XXI-B, Johnny and 34 others escaped through a tunnel on 5 March 1943. After being recaptured and after spending some time in the cooler, he was returned to Stalag Luft III in April 1943. It was here that Johnny became involved with the organization that became known as The Great Escape. Due to his large size (he was 6'4"), Johnny did not dig the tunnels but helped create diversions such as choir singing to help cover the sound of the digging. Three tunnels were dug; named Tom, Dick, and Harry. On March 25th. 1944 Johnny entered tunnel 'Harry' and made it out as part of The Great Escape. He travelled with Flight Lieutenant James Wernham RCAF towards Czechoslovakia, but they were caught during the afternoon of the same day at a railway station. Johnny was then sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp with three other escapees. 49 others who'd been recaptured were executed under Hitler's direct orders. At Sachsenhausen a group of prisoners almost immediately began digging another tunnel, which was completed and used on the night of 23 September 1944, when Johnny and a handful of others escaped. Johnny was on the run for over a month, but was eventually arrested by a German farmer and returned to Sachsenhausen. The four recaptured escapees were placed in solitary confinement and chained to the floor in the death cells but amazingly all were spared execution. The war was winding down and, because of his connection to Churchill, Johnny was taken to Berlin and asked to act as a peace envoy to the British government. After traveling to Dresden, where he survived the RAF Air Raid, then Munich, he crossed the border into Switzerland. He arrived in Britain in May 1945 after almost five years of captivity. By all accounts, Johnny Dodge had indomitable spirit and a consistently sunny disposition that endeared him to nearly everyone who knew him, even including many of his nazi captors. While working as a stockbroker after the war, the German commandant of Johnny's first prison camp became one of his clients. And because of his propensity for escaping (along with his surname), his fellow prisoners dubbed him "The Dodger" or, sometimes, "The Artful Dodger.".
