Artwork by the great Warren Kremer, an American comics cartoonist best known for creating the Harvey Comics characters Richie Rich, Hot Stuff the Little Devil, and Stumbo the Giant.

Kremer was born in the Bronx in 1921. He trained at the School of Industrial Arts and started out doing work tied to pulps and print services before comics fully grabbed him.

This piece was used for The Beyond, but the interior story it went with had actually been recycled from Challenge of the Unknown. Both were short-lived pre-code horror lines. The comics biz back then did whatever it could to squeeze out a profit. Art and stories moved around, got repackaged, and found new life under different covers.

He went on to have a long run at Harvey Comics. He worked there for decades and, for a lot of readers, his line basically became “the Harvey look.” He helped shape the faces and bodies of the characters that lived on those covers, especially the kid-friendly world that made Harvey famous.

After Harvey’s classic period ended, Kremer kept drawing. He even did work for Marvel’s kid-focused Star Comics line in the 1980s.
