Gene "The Dean" Colan, the master of painterly penciling whose art graced many a classic Silver Age story in such titles as Iron Man, Dr. Strange, Daredevil and Tomb of Dracula , is ailing . And his family is having a hard time paying his medical bills. They are therefore asking Colan's fans for contributions, so if you count yourself amongst those, please consider giving whatever you might be able to spare. Remember: Colan is unfortunate enough to live in a rich country whose government is of very little help when it comes to this kind of problem and has mostly worked for employers who are of even less use.

As the above portrait of Supergirl demonstrates, Gene Colan has the unique ability to capture the heroic essence of brightly colored gods and goddesses along with the down-to-earth reality of everyday life.
The Maid of Might has seldom looked more beautiful or regal, yet the awed bystanders look no different than the average person found walking down any city street.
Paired with his knack for creating slightly Gothic moods in the most common of settings, it's no wonder Colan has captured the imagination of so many fans.
