Marie Severin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (452 words)
Marie Severin (born 21 August 1929 in Oceanside, New York) is an American comic book artist and colorist.
After the Collapse of EC, Severin went to work for Marvel Comics in the early 1960s, where she remained until the mid-1990s, although it was for her output in the late 1960s and early 1970s that she is most celebrated today.
Her brother John Severin is an equally well-regarded artist who also worked for EC and Marvel.
Talent Pool 20 - Marie Severin (Mar 2000) (1581 words)
Marie Severin has deserved a column in "The Talent Pool" for sometime by virtue of her place in Marvel's Silver Age bullpen, but some delays for research kept delaying this column.
Marie, in her EC work, seems mostly to have served in support functions, presumably like inking, lettering, and color, though occasional pieces of her pencil art did make it into EC titles.
Severin did a lot of covers and some interiors as well in those days, showing the ability to pencil, ink, letter, color, and do almost everything that an editor and writer did not between the blank page and what went to the printers.
