Disclose Notes: Art identification based on Livingstone‘s credited work in Classic Comics #9, 12, and 15 (1943). Similarities include ears with gaping holes when shown from the side, men with burly builds, and women drawn with faces that are less wrinkled and more plain than the men’s. Clothing is often shaded in a circular pattern, to the point of heavily shadowing various sections of the clothing, particularly on the shirts. Livingstone also tends to draw characters putting their hands on their hips and lightning bolts in a long and angular manner.
