" Exceptional craftsman and artists were often boast — Barry Windsor - Smith , Steranko , John Buscema , Gene Colan , Neal Adams , Howard Chaykin , and others — and one of the goal of this project is to produce a carefully curated record of this moderately more unsung work that so many comics readers have forget or are unfamiliar with .
